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.
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.
That's it for today.
Making more friends is a goal.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

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.

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

Procrastinates a lot.
What I need from you?

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

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.

Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Ask yourself:
“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.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
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.
Does not procrastinate.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Hangs out with loser friends.

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

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
