How does one succeed in life?
Last Updated: 20.06.2025 01:43
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.
Does not procrastinate.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Procrastinates a lot.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
How often do prisoners try to escape from jail/prison, and how many of them succeed?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
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.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
How do you respond to "I don't like you anymore"?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Ask yourself:
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Why has Biden pulled ahead in battleground states and is now projected to win the 2024 presidency?
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Why is money considered to be the root of all evil?
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Do not set goals—set systems.
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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Making more friends is a goal.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
What I need from you?
That's it for today.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
“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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
