If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).
Ask yourself:
Can’t control his impulses (women, porn, masturbation, smoking, Netflix, anger, etc.).
“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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
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.

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.
