Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
That's it for today.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
What's the hardest part about marriage that no one ever talks about?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
“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.
Making more friends is a goal.
Ask yourself:
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
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.
Why do people think Mirko is boring in My Hero Academia?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Do not set goals—set systems.
How do you write a letter to your uncle who sent you money for your birthday outfit?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Procrastinates a lot.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
What I need from you?
What are some important works of Marcel Proust (novelist)?
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
If you believe in God, do you think God can save you from cancer?
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
What is the most inappropriate experience you have had with a friend's daughter?
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.

Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
