How does one succeed in life?

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Procrastinates a lot.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
“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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
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.
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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

Does not procrastinate.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
What I need from you?
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Hangs out with loser friends.
Is the saying "nice guys finish last" true? Can good intentions always lead to positive outcomes?
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Why did the UK Supreme Court rule that transgender women are not women?
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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Why do liberals have a problem with masculine men like Andrew Tate?
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
Why do many women wear sleeveless shirts, more so than men?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
That's it for today.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Ask yourself:
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Making more friends is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
