How does one succeed in life?

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

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

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

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

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

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

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

Has anyone ever had sex with their cousin? How did it start, and would you do it again?

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

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

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

Avoids sugar and is very fit.

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

What I need from you?

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

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

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

“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.

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

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

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.
