How does one succeed in life?

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.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Ask yourself:
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
What I need from you?
What were the reasons for Stalin and Brezhnev's dislike of Khrushchev?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Does not procrastinate.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?

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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan 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.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
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.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
What is the difference between sales incentives and sales promotions?
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Losing 20kg is a goal.

Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
That's it for today.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Hangs out with loser friends.
How much weight will I lose in the first month on a keto diet?
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Do not set goals—set systems.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Making more friends is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Procrastinates a lot.
