How does one succeed in life?

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.

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

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

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

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.

Making more friends is a goal.

What is your favorite underrated movie and why? What makes it underrated? How did you find it?

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

Procrastinates a lot.

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

I’m British and I'm hella bummed about it. Wish I was American or even Canadian, ’cause let’s be real, Canada’s gonna end up part of the States anyway. What should I do?

Do not set goals—set systems.

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

“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.

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

Big dreamer but only in his mind.

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

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

Losing 20kg 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.

Why is there a housing crisis in Europe?

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

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.

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

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.

Avoids sugar and is very fit.

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

What's your take on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? How has it affected you?

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

Hangs out with loser friends.

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

What is some advice for a business?

Living to your full potential is a goal.

Opens a business and makes WiFi money.

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

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.

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

Does not procrastinate.

Ask yourself:

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

Saving $10,000 is a goal.

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

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

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

That's it for today.

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

What I need from you?

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.

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

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

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

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

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