An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
What I need from you?
If you don’t change now, expect tomorrow to be almost exactly the same—or worse.

Big dreamer but only in his mind.
“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.

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.

Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide 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.
First, understand that, effective "change" should be 80% systems and only 20% willpower—not the other way around. Do not joke with that.
