Do not set goals—set systems.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Did Obito ever fully redeem himself in everyone's eyes?
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
What are some ballbusting stories?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Ask yourself:
That's it for today.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
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 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Leon Kennedy "actually quite a bad match for horror," says Resident Evil 9's director - Eurogamer
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.
What I need from you?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Hangs out with loser friends.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Procrastinates a lot.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Does not procrastinate.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Making more friends is a goal.
“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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
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):
