Visual Step Flow with Directional Cues

Today, I created a step-by-step guide that takes place all on one page — like filling out a form in a specific order. However, after finishing, I realized the steps weren’t easy to follow. The flow felt unclear. To improve this, I want to add visual cues that guide the user’s attention naturally through the steps. Here's the plan: ✅ Start the first step in green to signal where to begin. 🟥 Mark the final step in red to clearly show it's the last. ➡️ Use semi-transparent arrows between steps to gently direct the gaze from one action to the next without overwhelming the layout. Keep the direction consistent (top to bottom or left to right) for easy navigation. These small design elements will help make the process intuitive, even without lots of text.
