  3. 3

    The Chain Reaction

    Systematically connect the previous result to the next step, demonstrating how result (B) enables a new action or state (C), which in turn leads to the primary goal (D).

  4. 4

    The Ultimate Reward

    Reveal the final, counter-intuitive benefit of the entire chain, explaining how achieving the primary goal (D) unlocks a secondary, even more powerful and seemingly effortless reward (E).
