Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
What I need from you?
Does not procrastinate.
Do not set goals—set systems.
What did your best friend do that ended your friendship?
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.
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.
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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Ask yourself:
What are some cool confidence hacks?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Why is only the left side of my vagina bleeding, on and off?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Hangs out with loser friends.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Would the word literate carry the same meaning with public (common wealth) in 1900 vs today 2020?
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Losing 20kg is a goal.

Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
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.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
“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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Making more friends is a goal.
That's it for today.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Procrastinates a lot.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
