How does one succeed in life?
Last Updated: 21.06.2025 01:54
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
What I need from you?
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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Do not set goals—set systems.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Common blood pressure drug slows aging and boosts lifespan, even in older animals - Earth.com
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
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.

The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Ask yourself:
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
This email app is Gmail on steroids, and I can't recommend it enough - Android Police
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Does not procrastinate.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Circle IPO soars, giving hope to more startups waiting to go public - TechCrunch
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Athletics' Denzel Clarke leaps over wall to rob Angels' HR for incredible catch - ESPN
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
Voluptatibus dolorem laborum quae.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Making more friends is a goal.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

That's it for today.
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.
“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.
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.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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:
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
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.
Procrastinates a lot.
