Proverbs 27:18 KJV — Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.
Instructions are footsteps on the beach, left by those who have walked before you.
So when you follow the instructions, you’re allowing others to help you save time by letting you learn from their experience.
They’re sharing what worked for them in order to help you find what works for you.
But whatever the outcome, the things that work many times work for those who work them.
