Can you be a successful part-time searcher?

I'm new to the ETA community and the main thing I still wrestle with in my mind is the large number of success stories I've heard from searchers who eventually found success upon switching his/her search from part-time to full-time.. 

Does anyone have any success stories from a part-time search? Or what are the key characteristics found in those who find success with a part-time search?

Thanks for any feedback!

From my understanding it is very difficult. Given the volume of interactions you need to have in order to close a deal, combined with how intensive diligence can become once an opportunity is found, it's hard to split your time and truly apply yourself
