Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Does not procrastinate.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Did you become a cuckold for your wife?
Paying a coach with a detailed plan is a system.
Has a beautiful wife, cars, etc.
Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

Final example: Maybe you want to be a better version of yourself in 2025.

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.
“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.

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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
