Making more friends is a goal.
An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):

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.

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

Example 1: Let’s say you make a monthly income, and you want to save $10,000.
However, he firmly believes that one day, he will (like by a miracle) be that new, dope version of himself, Sam’i 2.0:

Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
