Does not procrastinate.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
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.
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.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
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.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Have you ever had sex with sisters?
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Procrastinates a lot.

Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Do not set goals—set systems.
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.
What’s the worst thing you caught anyone in your family doing?
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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):

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.
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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Making more friends is a goal.
“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.
What I need from you?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
That's it for today.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Ask yourself:
Hangs out with loser friends.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
