Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Making more friends is a goal.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Procrastinates a lot.
Is it okay for a wife who comes home from a date to tell her husband what she did?
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
What I need from you?
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

Do not set goals—set systems.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:

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.

Losing 20kg is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.

“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.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Have you ever been forced to undress for money just once?
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.

Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
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.

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