Easy Discipline: An Unconventional Way to Achieve Ambitious Things

INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER

From the bestselling author of Rejection Proof, a guide to achieving your goals—the easy way—for anyone who struggles with distractions, disorganization, and discipline.

Most people think that because great achievements are difficult, they must also feel difficult. But great accomplishments are rarely achieved through mental toughness. Rather, the most successful people find ways to make hard actions repeatable and enjoyable.

Drawing on stories from his own battles with ADHD and procrastination, as well as twelve epic stories from history and pop culture, bestselling author Jia Jiang outlines the four principles of Easy Discipline—Enjoyment, Artistry, Systems, and Yourself—so you can take hard actions on a consistent basis, and love your work in the process. Each principle offers a mindset of Easy Discipline, as well as powerful, practical tools to turn mindset into action. You’ll learn:

-How to harness the power of the One Action Goal system—and why it’s the only system you’ll ever need
-Why “Changing the Game” can turn dreaded tasks into energizing pursuits
-How to curate your media consumption to educate and inspire you toward your goal, the way developers fine-tune AI machines
-How to create an “Inspiration Index” that concretely ties your efforts (inputs) to measurable outputs
-Why “Repetition with Variation” is the key to success

A love letter to ambitious people everywhere who are disorganized, undisciplined, and distracted, Easy Discipline will give you the mindsets and tools to turn flaws into assets, obstacles into stepstones, and dreams into realities. Work can be fun. Focus can be automatic. And success can be easy.
