How does one succeed in life?

Big dreamer but only in his mind.

How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?

Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

Are MAGA the "useful idiots" for the radical-right billionaires like Charles Koch and Elon Musk?

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.

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.

Is it ok if I wear a bonnet as a person with straight hair? I used to have curly hair, but later on in life I got it treated, I’m not black, but my hair keeps getting frizzy every morning so I am considering it. Is it cultural appropriation?

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.

What I need from you?

Hangs out with loser friends.

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.

Avoids sugar and is very fit.

Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:

Procrastinates a lot.

Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.

That's it for today.

“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.

When will the new normal in the global economy return, following the panic caused by US President Donald Trump's tariff flip-flops?

Ask yourself:

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

Living to your full potential is a goal.

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.

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.

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).

When Chinese people see my pets, will they think of it as their food?

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) 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.

Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.

Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Making more friends is a goal.

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

Losing 20kg is a goal.

Does not procrastinate.

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.

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.

Do not set goals—set systems.
