I think the idea behind it is that with every rejection, you'd hopefully try to improve a little or start on a new project. Eventually you'd learn something new.
The other thing is to conquer the fear of rejection. There are a lot of people who get stuck not submitting stuff simply because they're afraid of getting rejected. But not trying is as good as a rejection.
- Throwaway23412 10y agoI remember a recent submission that made an unintuitive argument: quantity = quality. If you focus on quality from the beginning, you spend too much time in analysis paralysis and get less feedback on your progress. If you focus on quantity from the beginning, you get more feedback the more you produce. It's better to learn what not to do.
