"So, getting it right once is a little like winning the lottery."

Somewhat. Both take time and money. However, with the lottery, you have no input to what the winning number will be or the amount you can win. In music, you create the winning number and decide what amount of money you are willing to work for.

Understand your future. One day you may do a Streetjelly, Periscope or Facebook show and only have 6 viewers. BUT, one viewer may be a producer looking for a specifically themed song for a new breakout artist he's producing. He stops on your page, doesn't like your voice, your look or playing but the song itself is perfect for his artist. He contacts you, arranges to place your song - It strikes gold, Song of the year,songwriter of the year and millions of downloads. Likely, who knows. Impossible if you don't keep doing what you're doing.... There are a lot of mix engineers, producers and A&R people and especially songwriters that started their career on the dream of being a star.
