Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Hangs out with loser friends.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
What should I do? I'm 17 and I'm dating a 23-year-old guy.
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.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Does not procrastinate.
Ask yourself:
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Procrastinates a lot.

“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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
What did your best friend do that ended your friendship?
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
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.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Making more friends is a goal.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
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.
What I need from you?
What is your secret to glowing skin?
Do not set goals—set systems.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
That's it for today.
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.
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.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
