How does one succeed in life?

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Procrastinates a lot.
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.
What are the coolest new smart home gadgets to upgrade your living space?
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Does not procrastinate.
What I need from you?
Does eating bread before bed make you fat? If so, why?
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
“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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Ask yourself:
Were any US Generals hurt or killed yesterday in Damascus, Syria, yesterday 5/9/24?
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
That's it for today.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Making more friends is a goal.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Gov. Abbott activates state emergency resources ahead of anticipated severe weather - Click2Houston
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
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.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
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.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Hangs out with loser friends.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
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.
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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
