Why this guide?

✅ What (almost) all successful people do

1. They respond to a strong triggerA spark: a desire, an emergency, an obstacle, or an opportunity.It’s often a turning point that pushes them to act. They don’t start “just because,” but because something touches or challenges them.

2. They feel capable — or decide to become capableThey have confidence in a skill, even a partial one, or they commit to learning fast.The belief that they can do it — even if it takes effort — is a key driver.

3. They mobilize what they needThey don’t rely solely on their own resources. They seek allies, support, information, time, or a suitable framework.They activate a network — even a modest one.

4. They feel internally alignedThey act because it makes sense to them. Even when it’s hard, they feel in the right place.This emotional connection gives them a unique energy.

5. They move forward by testing and adjustingThey look for signals: Is it working? Does it fit me?They’re willing to adapt their path along the way, without losing themselves.

🚫 What people who often fail tend to do

1. They start without a true inner driveThey do “what they’re supposed to do” or “what’s expected” — without really believing in it or caring.That motivation fades quickly.

2. They wait for perfect conditionsThey count on the ideal context or on others to move forward.When those conditions don’t come, everything stalls.

3. They remain alone or poorly supportedNo support, no feedback, or people who hold them back more than they help.Isolation is often fatal.

4. They ignore warning signsThey keep going even when everything signals a problem: no results, lost momentum, tension.Failure becomes inevitable without recalibration.
