An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
“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.
Can a bride cheat on her groom at a wedding?
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.
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.

Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
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.
Living to your full potential is a goal.

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.
Ask yourself:
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Do not set goals—set systems.
Procrastinates a lot.
That's it for today.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Hangs out with loser friends.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
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.
