Does not procrastinate.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
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.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
What is the funniest joke you've been told that you still think about to this day?

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Why does Rahul Gandhi have so many haters?
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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Should Pete Rose's record as the all-time hits leader be recognized and celebrated?
What I need from you?
Procrastinates a lot.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
What’s a mistake most guys make when trying to get a girlfriend?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Ask yourself:
Do you think Japan will have same-sex marriage by 2030?
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Do not set goals—set systems.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
That's it for today.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
“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.
