Do not set goals—set systems.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
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.
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.
I just cannot wake up early, even if I sleep on time. What should I do?
Making more friends is a goal.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Living to your full potential 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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Why do I sweat so much after shower?
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
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.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
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.
Hangs out with loser friends.

That's it for today.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Losing 20kg is a goal.
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.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
What I need from you?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Does not procrastinate.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Procrastinates a lot.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Ask yourself:
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
