Making more friends is a goal.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
What is your daily motivation and does it work?
“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.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Procrastinates a lot.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Hangs out with loser friends.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
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:

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.

Losing 20kg is a goal.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
That's it for today.
Is the media protecting Kamala Harris?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Trump travel ban barring citizens from 12 countries takes effect - BBC
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.
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
What I need from you?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Is it wrong of me to feel uncomfortable that my friend thinks my brother is hot?
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Does not procrastinate.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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.
Ask 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.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
