How does one succeed in life?

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
What does it mean when someone says "I'm feeling frisky"?
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Procrastinates a lot.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
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.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
What I need from you?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Ask yourself:
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
