An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
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.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
How do I identify fake friends in life?
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Making more friends is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:

If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.
What I need from you?
“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.
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
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.
