First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.

What I need from you?
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.

The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

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.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
“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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
What are some sex stories from your college days?
Procrastinates a lot.

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

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.

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.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Ask yourself:
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
Hangs out with loser friends.
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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Making more friends is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
