How does one succeed in life?

Losing 20kg is a goal.
Ask yourself:
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
What is it like to be a Christian in Iran?
Procrastinates a lot.
What I need from you?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Why do women wear less clothes compared to men?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Do not set goals—set systems.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Making more friends is a goal.
Does not procrastinate.
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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Measles leaves children vulnerable to other diseases for years - Our World in Data
“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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Why did my bipolar girlfriend split up with me?
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.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
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.).
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
That's it for today.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
