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)?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.

What I need from you?
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.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
What are some small, random things that annoy you to no end?
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
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.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.

Do not set goals—set systems.
Living to your full potential 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.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Ask yourself:
What does it mean when someone says "I'm feeling frisky"?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
“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.
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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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:
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
