Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
“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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.

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.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Making more friends is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
That's it for today.

Ask yourself:
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
What I need from you?
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.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
