Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Procrastinates a lot.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.

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

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.
Does not procrastinate.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
