How does one succeed in life?

Do not set goals—set systems.

Saving $10,000 is a goal.

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

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

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

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.

Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

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.

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.

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

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.

Procrastinates a lot.

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

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

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

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

That's it for today.

“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.

We now told, by Senator Grassley, that on the FBI form about the Biden bribery story, there is a Burisma exec who says he has 17 tapes of his deal with the Biden. 15 of Hunter and 2 of Joe Biden? What would this do to Hunter/Joe Biden if released?

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

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.

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.

Ask yourself:

What I need from you?

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
