Procrastinates a lot.
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.

What I need from you?
Ask yourself:
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Debitis voluptas voluptatem ea sit.
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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
That's it for today.

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Does not procrastinate.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Saving $10,000 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.
My ex got into a relationship within 2 weeks after a breakup. What should I do?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Making more friends is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Why does Trump keep blaming Ukraine for getting invaded by Russia?
Do not set goals—set systems.
“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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.

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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
