Avoids sugar and is very fit.
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.
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.
Ask yourself:

Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
What do you think of Andrew Tate's 'PhD' course?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
“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.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Making more friends is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Hangs out with loser friends.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
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.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
That's it for today.
Procrastinates a lot.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
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.
