Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Why is the world male-dominated?
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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Does the West have a defense against China's PL17 air-air missile?
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
What can I do to deal with disrespectful children?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
What trains transport cars and passengers near Pompano Beach, Florida that goes to New York?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
“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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Living to your full potential is a goal.
If you received hand-me-downs as a child, how did they make you feel?
What I need from you?
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Ask yourself:
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.
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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Have you ever had a secret crush on anyone?
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.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
I'm British and I hate my glasses. Are prescription glasses better in New York City?
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.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Does not procrastinate.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Procrastinates a lot.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Making more friends is a goal.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
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.
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.
That's it for today.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
