The Courage To Be Disliked: How to free yourself, change your life and achieve real happiness by Fumitake Koga, Ichiro Kishimi

challenging emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

this is one of the best books i've read in a while - the ~6 month library wait was worth it. HOWEVER. i will absolutely, 10000000% be buying my own copy. i highlighted so many things and need to go back and really let each chapter sink in and i want to take time to journal on the various things i highlighted. 

this will really make you frustrated that freud gets talked about way more than adler. i know i wish i had heard of this philosophy sooner. i feel like it resonates with me way more. definitely, absolutely pick up a copy, be prepared to have everything you thought you knew wrecked - if only to build something better, stronger moving forward. 

i wanted to devour this so quickly, but found that savoring it is really the way to go. also maybe read this with something lighter because this really makes you think so it's nice to have a balance.
