Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Why do older siblings always hate younger siblings?
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Why was Boromir corrupted by the One Ring, but not Faramir in The Lord of the Rings?
Hangs out with loser friends.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
What I need from you?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
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.
Are MAGA the "useful idiots" for the radical-right billionaires like Charles Koch and Elon Musk?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
“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.
If a narcissist can't feel remorse, can they ever feel regret for an evil act after going to rehab?
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
That's it for today.
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.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Procrastinates a lot.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
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.
Does not procrastinate.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
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.
Making more friends is a goal.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
