The many ideas that come from experienced people don't make me like it, because everyone has different talents and desires, so everyone certainly achieves their own path to success and this can be seen from their different skills and they cannot be the same because they come from different aspects of life. in assessing someone's behavior by looking at it from the point of view of place, environment, it can influence them, it is difficult to follow their talents. Although there are those who follow applying these talents but it is limited, however, several ideas have been tried but have not succeeded.
Every person is different and every person should choose your own path to success. No one can get success to follow any person blindly. Either a person is student of University or he is a businessman or he is Employee,he should make a daily plan and should stick to his plan. Your plan will give you success in future because when small small steps will join ,then we will get a huge success in life. Every person who got success,he or she was a consistent. Without consistency , success is not possible. Always follow your teacher but don't follow blindly and do your own research.
There are legit individuals who can share a tip on how to be successful and there might be people who can get lucky to stumble upon them. That is going to be start of their life-changing journey. Planning on the other hand, seems a different matter already. Usually, if who is more educated and has a better life, are still the ones who are more organized and always plan things, though I think this is also the reason on why they achieved their current status.
Planning can consist of small steps and indeed that we shouldn't underestimate them. Not only that they can add up but we can't also get to where we want to go, if some small steps are missing on the way. Lastly, Consistency as you said must also be there.
