This is a good point - and a mistake I often see is to "pivot" from industry to industry, never really getting one's teeth into the details of any particular industry. This inevitably leads to failures because you get two valuable assets from spending time in one industry: (1) an understanding of what companies' actual problems are, in detail and (2) relationships and reputation within that industry. Pressing 'reset' frequently makes success much more remote, but continuing to pick at a single (good-sized) industry over years will almost always yield some success to those who are good at listening and willing to adapt what they do to what they hear from customers. Even if the first idea or two don't get traction.
