Using your same numbers: if you're one of the ones that succeeded, it's important to remember that 70% of your success was still chance. If you compare yourself to someone else who isn't succeeding, they could still very well just be a victim of that more-than-two-thirds-chance they're going to fail. So if you just tell them "here's what I did differently, that's why you're failing" you're doing them a disservice. I think that makes it relatively important, since the world is full of successful people who want to tell other people that one little secret that'll turn their life around.
