How does one succeed in life?

In 5 years, YOU will still be the one making decisions. And if you keep your current habits, "YOU 2.0" will have big problems.
PICK 1 important thing you want to quit or bring into your life in 2025. Think hard about a system that will make it impossible or inevitable.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
What is the most clever way you have seen someone respond to road rage?
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Making more friends is a goal.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
What do you think of Sony's generative AI rendering Aloy in a Horizon: Forbidden West demo?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
What I need from you?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Vero beatae repudiandae excepturi hic quia tenetur.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Ask yourself:
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
That's it for today.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Cutting off WiFi at home for a month or giving your phone to a distant friend for a month (in exchange for a Nokia or simply nothing) is a system.
“YOU 2.0” is like your future kid. It’s your duty to make decisions for him. It is wiser to marry a nice mom for your kid, not just a beautiful wife for yourself.

Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

Does not procrastinate.
Keep in mind that, there is always a system for any problem. You just need to be willing to think hard enough and BE WILLING TO MAKE SACRIFICES.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Procrastinates a lot.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Porn blockers might help, but they won’t be as effective. And you know nudity isn’t just on Pornhub—it’s everywhere. Don’t joke with fire.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
