How does one succeed in life?

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

Big dreamer but only in his mind.

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

Why do heterosexual men like anal sex with women? I think it's because they secretly want to have anal sex with a man? What do you think?

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

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

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

Ryan Lochte’s wife Kayla reveals ‘painful’ divorce after seven years of marriage - New York Post

Does not procrastinate.

Avoids sugar and is very fit.

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

O'Malley's dad 'super relaxed' cornering title bout - ESPN

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.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.

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

Here Is the Real Size of a Meatball Made From the Entire Human Race (Spoiler: It’s Smaller Than You Think) - The Daily Galaxy

Saving $10,000 is a goal.

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

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

Do women lack the mental strength to succeed at STEM? There seems to be few women at STEM and more women leave STEM after a time of working at it. How can it be just sexism if women aren't banned from entering?

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

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

What’s something you did a lot as a kid that you don’t miss now that you’re an adult?

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

Do not set goals—set systems.

Losing 20kg is a goal.

Is it possible for sociopaths to feel genuine remorse for their actions or thoughts towards others, even if they are skilled at hiding it from others?

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

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.

Procrastinates a lot.

Why are the bands Smashmouth and Nickelback often used as punchlines?

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

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

Hangs out with loser friends.

It is day 42 of the Trump administration. Is the war in Ukraine over? Is inflation solved? Are groceries cheaper?

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

Making more friends is a goal.

What I need from you?

Were the 1980s as uptight and prudish as movies and TV shows make them out to be? When I think of 80s culture, I think about a very "icky" judgmental yuppie status quo time period.

That's it for today.

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

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.

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

“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.

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

Living to your full potential is a goal.

Ask yourself:

Opens a business and makes WiFi money.

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

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.

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.

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

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.

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

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

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