Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Procrastinates a lot.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Should I become an interior designer or not in today's world?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Ask yourself:
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
How or what is the best way to make a hot rail device? Anddd goooo 👀👀
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Does not procrastinate.
That's it for today.
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.
What I need from you?
“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.).
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.

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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
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.
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.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.

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.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Are there any real-life examples of prisoners who escaped from hospitals and were never caught?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
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)?
What is the dirtiest thing you have witnessed your wife do?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
