Review: The Courage to Be Disliked: How to Free Yourself, Change your Life and Achieve Real Happiness

The Courage to Be Disliked: How to Free Yourself, Change your Life and Achieve Real Happiness The Courage to Be Disliked: How to Free Yourself, Change your Life and Achieve Real Happiness by Ichiro Kishimi
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Not sure about Adlerian philosophy but the sense I got was you own everything - even the fact that you are unhappy is your choice. Similarly being angry is our choice. The concepts are misinterepreted as Japanese origins. It is a Japanese person's understanding of western philosophy of Adler. The format is very painful amongst philosopher and student setup making it irritatingly painful to get through. Personal insults are a power struggle for an individual aiming to keep the power equation handy when they run out of ideas and other trite perspectives.
