The Art of Achieving Ambitious Things

Why do we usually fail in achieving our goals? “The bigger the outcome, the bigger the failure rate,” says Jia Jiang. “That’s why New Year’s resolutions usually fail, and why businesses always get too busy to stay focused.” Jia’s proven solution: simplify success by relentlessly focusing on one thing—what he has named the One Action Goal. Drawing from his upcoming book, The Art of Achieving Ambitious Things (Simon & Schuster, May 2026), and more than a decade of coaching clients to success, Jia provides a playbook for achieving any personal, professional, or organizational goal. Determined to put success within everyone’s reach, Jia shares his One Action Goal System, including:

  • Turning ambitious objectives into your One Action Goal
  • Routinizing your dreams and fail-proofing your environment
  • Using your One Action Plan to accelerate your ideas
  • Developing radical focus on your One Action Goal
  • Overcoming barriers to achievement with a framework for success
