Living to your full potential 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.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
That's it for today.
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.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Making more friends is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Why do Christians think voting for Trump is any better than voting for Kamala Harris?
Procrastinates a lot.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
“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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Saving $10,000 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.
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.
Does not procrastinate.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

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