How does one succeed in life?

Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
“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.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Does not procrastinate.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Did you swallow cum the first time you sucked a penis?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
What is a common thought that keeps people up at night? Why do some people experience this?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
What I need from you?
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.
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.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.

Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Why is Tiananmen Square censored?
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
My friend asked my crush and he said my crush hates me but not in a rude way. What does that mean?
Making more friends is a goal.
That's it for today.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Procrastinates a lot.
