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.

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

That's it for today.

What is your review of X-Men '97 season 1?

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.

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

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.

Living to your full potential is a goal.

“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.

Making more friends is a goal.
