Don't try to reinvent the wheel.
If you really want to be a success in life, find a mentor that is where you want to be and let them lead you to success.
A smart man learns from his mistakes but a wise man learns from the mistakes of others.
You don't have to know your mentor personally, although that helps. Your mentors can teach you through books, youtube videos or courses.
Find somebody you trust that resonates with you and follow them to the promised land.
Be humble and teachable, work hard and don't quit.
