“The Courage to Be Disliked” by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga is a compelling exploration of Adlerian psychology, framed as a dialogue between a philosopher and a young man. Through their conversations, the book delves into concepts such as personal freedom, the importance of self-acceptance, and the idea that our happiness is not dictated by external circumstances but by our own choices and attitudes.
The authors challenge conventional beliefs about happiness and success, advocating for a life led by courage to be oneself and to overcome the fear of others’ judgments.
This thought-provoking work encourages readers to take responsibility for their lives, embrace their true selves, and cultivate meaningful relationships.
