An average man, let's call him Sam’i (that’s my name):
Losing 20kg is a goal.
Attending 1 specific event every week is a system. Friends will naturally come to you.
Similarly, "YOU 2.0" trusts you to make decisions for him.

Saving $10,000 is a goal.
Buying, a book like Live Intentionally or any other practical self-improvement guide is a system.

Example 3: Maybe you want to make more friends.
Quitting porn for 30 days is a goal.
Hates going to the gym, eating healthy, or even doing laundry.
The money you’ve invested, the tailored plan, and the accountability of the coach make it almost impossible not to succeed.
