Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
What I need from you?
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Do not set goals—set systems.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Cutting off WiFi at home for a month or giving your phone to a distant friend for a month (in exchange for a Nokia or simply nothing) is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.

PICK 1 important thing you want to quit or bring into your life in 2025. Think hard about a system that will make it impossible or inevitable.
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.
That's it for today.

Does not procrastinate.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Is the Las Vegas Grand Prix considered one of the "premier events on the Formula 1 calendar?"
In 5 years, YOU will still be the one making decisions. And if you keep your current habits, "YOU 2.0" will have big problems.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

Ask yourself:
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.
Procrastinates a lot.
“YOU 2.0” is like your future kid. It’s your duty to make decisions for him. It is wiser to marry a nice mom for your kid, not just a beautiful wife for yourself.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide 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.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Making more friends is a goal.
