An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Avoids sugar and is very fit.

What I need from you?
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.

Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
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.
Ask yourself:

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.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Do most men prefer curvy women or skinny women?
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
“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.
What would you do if you found out that someone had broken into your home while you were sleeping?
Hangs out with loser friends.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
That's it for today.

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Losing 20kg is a goal.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Does not procrastinate.
Making more friends is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
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:
Do not set goals—set systems.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
