“Jiang makes a point too many achievement books miss: if you hate what you're doing, no system will save you. Easy Discipline is a practical, story-rich argument for finding work you actually want to show up for.”—Nir Eyal, bestselling author of Indistractable and Beyond Belief
“Most books about discipline make you feel like you need to try harder. This one makes you realize you've been trying wrong. Jiang flips the entire achievement conversation on its head with a simple idea: what if sustainable discipline didn't have to feel like suffering? Easy Discipline is smart, story-driven book that sticks with you long after you put it down. If you've ever burned out chasing a goal you actually cared about, this book will show you why, and what to do instead.”—Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author of Procrastination Proof
“Easy Discipline makes a refreshing case that discipline doesn’t have to feel like a struggle. Jiang shows how to make follow-through feel more natural—and a lot less exhausting.”—Chris Guillebeau, author of Time Anxiety and The Art of Non-Conformity
"There is a better way to achieve your greatest dreams. Not through punishment and force, but through joy, mastery, and systems that align with your deepest nature. Easy Discipline is a rallying cry for every ambitious person who has been taught that suffering is the price of greatness. It's time to reject that story and reclaim the best version of yourself."—Liz Tran, author of AQ and The Karma of Success
"Easy Discipline offers a refreshing reframe of discipline itself—from something you endure to something you cultivate through enjoyment, creativity, and thoughtful systems. It resonates strongly with my belief that you can't compete with someone who's having fun."—Tiago Forte, bestselling author of Building a Second Brain
“Jiang has a knack for taking uncomfortable problems and making them approachable. He did it so well in Rejection Proof that I assigned it in my entrepreneurship classes. Now, in Easy Discipline, he applies his same kind of thinking to discipline itself. Instead of glorifying grind, he makes a simple, convincing case that the work you actually enjoy is the work you’ll stick with. And in a world obsessed with pushing harder, that’s a surprisingly useful shift.”—Aaron Dinin, Duke University entrepreneurship professor and author of the “Learning to Fail” newsletter
