Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
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.
Losing 20kg 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.
Making more friends is a goal.
Losers and winners have the same goals. The difference is their systems.

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.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
Why am I sweating so much at night even though my room is really cold?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, 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:
Living to your full potential is a goal.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Procrastinates a lot.
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?

“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):
That's it for today.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.

The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
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.
How are retailers finding success in offering "pre-tariff" sales promotions?
Example 2: Maybe you want to lose weight.
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.
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.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Example 4: Maybe you want to quit porn for 30 days.
Scrolls too much TikTok/YouTube Shorts.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Does not procrastinate.
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.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Ask yourself:
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
What I need from you?
