First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
What I need from you?
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
How do you handle family members who ask for handouts?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
Procrastinates a lot.
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.
Why do all the stupid people think Donald J. Trump is stupid?
Paying a coach with a detailed plan 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.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Who writes and reads novels nowadays?
Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.

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.

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.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Making more friends is a goal.

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
