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.

Have you ever dealt with a Christian narcissist?

Losing 20kg is a goal.

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

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

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.

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

Making more friends is a goal.
