How does one succeed in life?

What I need from you?
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
“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.
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?

Losing 20kg is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Procrastinates a lot.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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.
Have you ever witnessed political correctness harm someone?
Ask yourself:
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Does not procrastinate.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
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.
That's it for today.

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Hangs out with loser friends.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
I have a "fat pussy" and I'm super self cautions about it. Do guys think it's gross?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Making more friends is a goal.
