The kids on your block are watching how you make it. Make it in a way they can copy.

Whatever succeeds near people gets treated as the available route. If the only visible way out of a place runs through luck or something you would not recommend, that becomes the plan for everybody behind you. A path assembled from things anyone could repeat, work, study, showing up, asking, is worth more locally than a spectacular one. Reproducibility is the part that actually helps other people.

Be open about the ordinary steps rather than only the outcome. Say which job, which class, who helped. Boring detail is what somebody can follow.
