How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

What I need from 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.
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.

Do not set goals—set systems.
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.

Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
Opens a business and makes WiFi money.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Making more friends is a goal.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?
