How does one succeed in life?

Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.

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

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

Every time I brush my hair when it’s dry it poofs up like a poof ball. But if I don’t brush it looks tangled and messy. I know I have some sort of curl or wavy hair, ive tried gels to define curls but it makes my hair frizzy and messy. What do I do?

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

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.

Have you ever been physically attacked by a demon?

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

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

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).

How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
