How does one succeed in life?

Ask yourself:
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
That's it for today.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Making more friends is a goal.
Do all Koreans look like K-pop idols?
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
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 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Hangs out with loser friends.

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.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
What is the general opinion of psychologists on Donald Trump's presidency?
Does not procrastinate.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
What bait should you use for ocean fishing?
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
How do I rat my boss out for serial cheating on his wife?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Procrastinates a lot.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
What I need from you?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
“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.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
