How does one succeed in life?

Does not procrastinate.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
What is the difference between the terms "Millennials" and "kids"?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
What I need from you?
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Ask yourself:
What made you feel disgusted today?
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
What are some good series or movies like GOT in the fantasy genre?
“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.
That's it for today.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
What happen if all of a sudden a movie star decides to quit acting?
Hangs out with loser friends.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
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.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Procrastinates a lot.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Why would my nipples hurt when I touch them?
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Making more friends is a goal.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
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.
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.
