An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Do not set goals—set systems.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
Hangs out with loser friends.
“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.
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.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Avoids sugar and is very fit.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Ask yourself:
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.
Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.
