“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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
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.).
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
NASA Science Community Budget Meeting POSTPONED - NASA Watch
Does not procrastinate.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
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.
Ask yourself:
Does the Hamas charter specifically call for the death of all Jews and the destruction of Israel?
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?

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.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
How airline fees have turned baggage into billions - BBC
Hangs out with loser friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Making more friends is a goal.
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.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Watch an asteroid the size of an aircraft carrier make a close pass of Earth on June 5 - Space
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.

Procrastinates a lot.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
That's it for today.
Mya Lesnar, daughter to WWE legend Brock Lesnar, wins national title in shot put - ESPN
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan 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.

Do not set goals—set systems.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
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.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
