Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
What do you love to do at night when you’re alone?
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Living to your full potential is a goal.
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.
Procrastinates a lot.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Why do only ugly women like me on Tinder? Is it because I'm an ugly man?
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Ask yourself:
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
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.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Does the rest of the world see America as a joke now that Trump is president again?
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Ea autem sint vel distinctio id iste ut.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
What I need from you?
Making more friends is a goal.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Does not procrastinate.
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.
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
That's it for today.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
“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.
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.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
