The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Hangs out with loser friends.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Do not set goals—set systems.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.

Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Making more friends is a goal.
What is it like to have an insanely beautiful girlfriend?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Can ringing in the ears be a sign of spiritual awakening?
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.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

“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.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Procrastinates a lot.
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.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Do older men realize that younger women usually do not prefer them?
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
That's it for today.

Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
What I need from you?
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Does not procrastinate.
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.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Ask yourself:
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.
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.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
