Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
That's it for today.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
What is it like to have an insanely beautiful girlfriend?
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Does not procrastinate.
Do you enjoy cheating on your spouse? If so, why?
Ask yourself:
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
“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.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Making more friends is a goal.
What I need from you?
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Why do wives cheat on their loyal husbands?
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
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.
Procrastinates a lot.

Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?

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.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
What is your favourite colour and why?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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 the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Is it wise to choose your family over your honor?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Do not set goals—set systems.
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.
