I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
That's it for today.

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Has anyone ever made you take off your shirt?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, 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.
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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
How do you cope when your mother doesn't love you?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Does not procrastinate.

How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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:

Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
What I need from you?
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.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

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.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
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.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Do not set goals—set systems.
