Publisher Description
In this follow-up to the international phenomenon The Courage to Be Disliked, discover how to reconnect with your true self, experience true happiness, and live the life you want.
What if one simple choice could unlock your destiny?
Already a major Japanese bestseller, this eye-opening and accessible follow-up to the “compelling” (Marc Andreessen) international phenomenon The Courage to be Disliked shares the powerful teachings of Alfred Adler, one of the giants of 19th-century psychology, through another illuminating dialogue between the philosopher and the young man.
Three years after their first conversation, the young man finds himself disillusioned and disappointed, convinced Adler’s teachings only work in theory, not in practice. But through further discussions between the philosopher and the young man, they deepen their own understandings of Adler’s powerful teachings, and learn the tools needed to apply Adler’s teachings to the chaos of everyday life.
To be read on its own or as a companion to the bestselling first book, The Courage to Be Happy reveals a bold new way of thinking and living, empowering you to let go of the shackles of past trauma and the expectations of others, and to use this freedom to create the life you truly desire.
Plainspoken yet profoundly moving, reading The Courage to Be Happy will light a torch with the power to illuminate your life and brighten the world as we know it. Discover the courage to choose happiness.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Bursting at the seams with real insights into how to experience more happiness in your life—and just enough philosophy to keep things fun and fascinating—The Courage to Be Happy is truly a joy. The format of Fumitake Koga and Ichiro Kishimi’s book is the same as their massively popular The Courage to Be Disliked, framing the duo’s ideas and advice as a dynamic conversation between a teacher and his students. The central ideas are those of early 20th-century Austrian psychiatrist Alfred Adler, who popularized the idea of the inferiority complex, and, initially, the pupils aren’t so sure about Adler’s take on happiness. The ensuing dialogue maps out the get-happy principles that Adler’s followers have been putting into practice for decades. It’s almost like the authors have anticipated all of our questions, and it’s incredibly satisfying (and a little eerie!) to hear them spoken out loud by a talented voice cast, including Dear Evan Hansen star Noah Galvin. Listening to this audiobook is like having a private lesson with an awesomely wise teacher.
