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.

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

Do not set goals—set systems.
The truth is: Future YOU is simply YOU, but older and more tired.
