Hangs out with loser friends.
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.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
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.

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
What I need from you?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
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.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

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.
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.).
Can a teenager take boron? (Read my comment below for more context if you wish)
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
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.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Ask yourself:
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
“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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Do not set goals—set systems.
