Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
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.

However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
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.
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.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

What I need from you?
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Procrastinates a lot.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
That's it for today.
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
“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.

Does not procrastinate.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
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.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
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.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
