1. Also applies to the corporate world. Great example is Steve Jobs coming back to Apple and refocusing the product lines.
2. There is value in more work for creative pursuits within a specific focus. Example here is where they had judges rank the best art from two groups. One group had to create a single piece to present while the other got to create as many as they wanted. The latter group did much better since they just produced a ton of volume, iterated, learned, etc.

You want both - hard work but keeping it focused.
Focus is the key.
