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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Where did Noah build the Ark? Was it in a desert or near water?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Why do I smell bad even though I have good hygiene?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
What do you respect the most about Elon Musk?
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
That's it for today.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Have you ever accidentally found out that you were about to be fired?
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
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.
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.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
What do you think about Matt Gatz as an attorney general?
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Does not procrastinate.
“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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
What should you answer when someone says to you in French, "au plaisir de vous revoir"?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Procrastinates a lot.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
If you were president, how would you make America "great again?"
What I need from you?
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.
What are some good inspirational movies?
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.
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.
Why does Boko Haram attack its own Muslims?
Do not set goals—set systems.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Ask yourself:
