Living to your full potential is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Procrastinates a lot.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Do not set goals—set systems.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
What was your most embarrassing and humiliating bare bottom spanking?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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:
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Is anyone up to have a little conversation?
Does not procrastinate.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Why is my elder sister so mean?
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
Ask yourself:
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Making more friends is a goal.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
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.
“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.
That's it for today.
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.
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.
What I need from you?
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
