How does one succeed in life?

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

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

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

Procrastinates a lot.

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

Do not set goals—set systems.

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