Epictetus, Carl Jung, and Laozi examine why wanting less feels harder than wanting more, and discover that the real question isn't about discipline or willpower—it's about what the wanting has been protecting you from. Through their debate, you'll learn that desires are not random, that stopping requires seeing what you're actually afraid of, and that freedom begins not in having less, but in choosing what you reach for with your eyes open.
