For me, the best approach has been simple: train consistently, lift with good form, eat enough, recover properly, and give the process time. The results aren't overnight, but they're much easier to maintain when the routine actually fits your life.

Yes! Training hard doesn't mean training recklessly. I would rather have someone consistently complete good workouts for a year than go 100% for a month and burn themselves out.
