Living to your full potential is a goal.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
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.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Procrastinates a lot.
What I need from you?

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.

Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
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:
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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Making more friends is a goal.
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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.

Do not set goals—set systems.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.

Big dreamer but only in his mind.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Does not procrastinate.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Ask yourself:
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
That's it for today.
