Serious question, did you ever have a simple question that took ages to find the right answer for?

Three years ago, I was trying to figure out how to properly ask for a raise at my old job in Austin. I spent a month reading vague advice online that just confused me more. Last week, I finally found a clear, step-by-step guide on a forum just like this one. I followed it and had a good chat with my boss yesterday. Has anyone else found that one specific piece of advice that finally clicked for you?

That "clear, step-by-step guide" you found is key. What was it about that specific advice that finally made sense, when a month of other stuff didn't? Was it the exact wording to use, or maybe the timing they suggested for the talk?
