How does one succeed in life?
Last Updated: 01.07.2025 00:03

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
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 guys ever want to suck a dick even though they are straight?
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
What I need from you?
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Can someone with ADHD describe the feeling of paralysis and how it affects them?
Does not procrastinate.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Ask yourself:

Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Why do many women wear sleeveless shirts, more so than men?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
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.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
“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.

Hangs out with loser friends.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.

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.
Making more friends is a goal.
That's it for today.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
