Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
What are some questions obviously just asked for sexual gratification?
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?

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

Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
