Hangs out with loser friends.

Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
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.

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.
“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.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
Do not set goals—set systems.

Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Ask yourself:
Procrastinates a lot.
Does not procrastinate.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
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.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan 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.
