Making more friends is a goal.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
What is something you want to "get off your chest"?
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Hangs out with loser friends.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
What are some great short jokes?
That's it for today.
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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Living to your full potential is a goal.

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.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
What I need from you?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Procrastinates a lot.
Ask yourself:
“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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

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.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
What does it mean when someone is pretending to be me?
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Why do a bra and panties have to match?
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 money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
