How does one succeed in life?

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?

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

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

The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.

Procrastinates a lot.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.

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.

How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?

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.

“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.

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.

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