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.

How can I make it impossible to fall into a specific bad habit (you want to quit)?
How can I make the good habit (you want to start) inevitable?
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.
Big dreamer but only in his mind.
Most people think their 2.0 version will magically manifest and find it easier to do hard things.
