Does not procrastinate.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
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.
“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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Hangs out with loser friends.
What is the best eye cream for your dark circles?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Ask yourself:

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Is love natural, or is it somehow created?
Procrastinates a lot.
Do not set goals—set systems.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
What's wrong with generation Z?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
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.
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.
What I need from you?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Making more friends is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
