How does one succeed in life?

Living to your full potential is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Procrastinates a lot.
That's it for today.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Why don't some people like the 10 Commandments?
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.

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.
“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.
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.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

Do not set goals—set systems.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Does not procrastinate.

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
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.
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 truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

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

Hangs out with loser friends.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
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.
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.
