Its tough in tournaments. Like someone else said you do need chips to make it depending on starting size of the ones your entering. It also depends on your stack and opponents stack to blind ratio as well.

Bigger stacks will take shots to pick up yours with sub par hands so of course if your small stacked you may have to win two or more hands to get up to where the bigger stacks may think twice before calling your raises or all ins.  It cracks me up when the guy with 3k bitches at the guy with 50k for calling 1500 with a 54 suited preflop with 300 or 400 bb. They sit there and say how can call that? Well the big stacks have that luxury to do so.

Sometimes you look like a donk in tournament poker. It happens. Dont let it bother you when a steal goes bad from time to time or you get caught by a good hand when making a positional play with a bad one.

Playing too tight may lead to finishing just short many times. You do need to be aggressive from time to time and make some moves. Its important to judge the tables you are at. See what other players are doing it goes in flows if everyone is playing tight try to steal a few blinds. If they are playing loose tighten up and so on.

The bubble and ends of tournaments are tricky and skill can only set you up to get lucky at the end of them. The more times you make it to the bubble the better the chances of getting lucky or hot at the right time  is increased.
