Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Why is the word "democracy" not in the preamble of the US Constitution?
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
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.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
How do you know how physically attractive you actually are?
Hangs out with loser friends.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?

Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.

The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Procrastinates a lot.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
“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.
What is the degree of influence of Saudi Wahhabism on the modern Muslim world?
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Making more friends is a goal.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
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:
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
What has been your best sexual experience?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
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.
Does not procrastinate.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Ask yourself:
Living to your full potential is a goal.
That's it for today.
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.
