“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.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
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.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
How do I overcome attachment issues?
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.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Procrastinates a lot.

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
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.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.

What I need from you?
That's it for today.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
What’s something you’ve learned that you think everyone should know, but nobody talks about?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Ask yourself:
Do not set goals—set systems.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Hangs out with loser friends.
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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Does not procrastinate.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
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.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
