Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month 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.

Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
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.
What do you do to make yourself sleep early?
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Ask yourself:

Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Procrastinates a lot.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
That's it for today.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Making more friends is a goal.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
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.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
What I need from you?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Hangs out with loser friends.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
“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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Does not procrastinate.
