An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
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.
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.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Starbucks CEO admits the struggling chain made a major mistake - TheStreet
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Ask yourself:
Why do flat Earthers exist? Why can’t I see the Sun at night? Is it because Earth is not flat?
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Does not procrastinate.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Are there any nude pictures of women with big tits?
What I need from you?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Making more friends is a goal.
What was your biggest culture shock going to Europe?
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
How can I be okay with being ugly? What is the bright side?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
What do you like about McDonald's?
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
Do not set goals—set systems.

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.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
What are the most common signs that a partner will cheat before it happens?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Hangs out with loser friends.
What should every American know before traveling to the UK?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
