Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Ask yourself:
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
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 happens when you need emergency surgery in countries with universal healthcare vs the US?
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Making more friends is a goal.
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.
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.

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
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.
Procrastinates a lot.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
What's the most incredible coincidence that ever happened to you?
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
In my experience, British people are fat, ugly and arrogant. Why is it and can it be changed?
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.
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.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Does not procrastinate.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
“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.
What I need from you?
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
