“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.

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Self-disciplined (controls his d*ck, no Netflix, no smoking, etc.).

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Living to your full potential is a goal.
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.
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.

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.
I never raise problems without solutions. So, what to do?

The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
