How does one succeed in life?

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

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

Procrastinates a lot.

Why is Trump so disliked worldwide?

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

Do not set goals—set systems.

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.

Why did my ex-narcissist move so fast with his new supply marriage engagement moving in, etc.?

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

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.

Ask yourself:

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

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

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

“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.

Does not procrastinate.

What would you do if you were lost at sea in the Florida Keys?

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

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.

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

What are the easiest stores for shoplifting?

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

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

Avoids sugar and is very fit.

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

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

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.

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

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.

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

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

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

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

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
