How does one succeed in life?

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
What is something brutally honest that needs to be said?
Ask yourself:
Does not procrastinate.
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.
Can a cop pull you over walking home asking why you are out so late?
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Making more friends is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
That's it for today.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
What is the lowest probability event you have personally witnessed?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Why do some people have loving parents and some do not?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Procrastinates a lot.
“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.
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.
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.
Is there an MBTI personality that is more or less likely to handle stress?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
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.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Why do some of those who believe in a god refuse to consider the possibility they could be wrong?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Do not set goals—set systems.
What is one thing you've learned from 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 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, 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:
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
What I need from you?
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
