The Courage to be Disliked (I. Kishimi & F. Koga)

Welcome to Episode 7 of The Books Decoded! Today, we dive deep into the transformative Japanese phenomenon, The Courage to Be Disliked. Based on the principles of Adlerian psychology, this episode challenges conventional wisdom about what it takes to find real happiness. We will explore the radical ideas that trauma does not dictate your future, that all your struggles are fundamentally interpersonal relationship problems, and why true freedom requires the courage to let others dislike you. Join us to learn why you should stop living to satisfy other people's expectations, how to "separate your tasks" from others, and how to start living earnestly in the "here and now".
