Living to your full potential is a goal.
Saving $10,000 is a goal.
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.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?

Like Sam’i, 99% of men treat their future selves like strangers—completely different from who they are right now.

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.
What I need from you?

First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
Do not set goals—set systems.
Having a process that automatically transfers money to your savings account each month is a system.
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.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
