Many of the guys who profited huge from poker started around 2003-2007,  at the height of the online poker boom, when regulations were lax and fish were aplenty. (I regrettably missed  that boat) I suppose Tom Dwan would be the poster child for the "online  poker player who started out small, and reached the top". There are many  other well-known names who followed a similar kind of trajectory, e.g.  Phil Galfond, Isaac Haxton, Andrew Robl, Viktor Blom... (just to throw  out a few, in case you're interested in looking into their stories).

I don't think there's a straightforward winning recipe. You need to have  the basic talent, put in incredible hours, and become an expert at at  least one format of the game. And most people simply won't make it.

Personally, I treat poker as an enjoyable past time that, unlike other games, incrementally earns me money in the course of playing. I have no expectations of  striking it rich, though.
