About this listen

The Japanese phenomenon that teaches us the simple yet profound lessons required to liberate our real selves and find lasting happiness.

The Courage to Be Disliked shows you how to unlock the power within yourself to become your best and truest self, change your future and find lasting happiness. Using the theories of Alfred Adler, one of the three giants of 19th-century psychology alongside Freud and Jung, the authors explain how we are all free to determine our own future - free of the shackles of past experiences, doubts and the expectations of others.

It's a philosophy that's profoundly liberating, allowing us to develop the courage to change and to ignore the limitations that we and those around us can place on ourselves. The result is an audiobook that is both highly accessible and profound in its importance. Millions have already benefited from its wisdom. Now that The Courage to Be Disliked has been published in English, so can you.

Please note: This is a recording of the 2018 print edition.

wow

Yea, this is a good one. I found this book insightful and relevant. The book was easy to listen to, as a dialogue the audio book format is ideal.

just as the author concluded, I am researching and learning of Alfred Adler.

Life-changing!

As an avid reader who reads on average for about 2 to 3 hours a day, I can honestly say that this book was mind-blowing! It has been a long time since I have come across a book this powerful! I loved every bit! It's a bit difficult to grasp all of it at once, so I would strongly recommend a second and even third read. A phenomenal and life changing work!

Courage to change what I can change

Lots of life lessons however I was not as captivated as I expected. Guess it was too much hype

Practical Insights, Clearly Read By Narrator.

A fresh way of delivering on philosophical viewpoints, palatable, story-like, lots of insights, lots of lightbulb moments (if you listen closely).

I loved the conversational set-up, I felt like I was the student listening in and getting some golden nuggets in the process!

A great way for the younger generations to digest philosophy that is practical.

Makes you think....and re-think ideas you may have held in your mind before. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to expand their mind and maybe challenge their beliefs about life, and trauma, and the connections between them.

Wonderful, yet bold and a little mysterious

I enjoyed listening to this book, I'm 25 now, will turn 26 in June. I'm glad I found Adlerian psychology now. Hope to receive read this book soon.

A bitter and powerful dose of reality

I sincerely struggled with the first hour of the book as I found the dialogue setting a bit annoying. Luckily, I persisted as the conversation started to get richer with some profound concepts like interpersonal relationships, separation of tasks and contribution. It's a heavy listen/read but worth it if you like rigour of a well defined philosophy.

Clear truths expressed in a dialogue format.

The content and narration were excellent. Written in a way which encourages practical application leading to a better life through healthy interrelationship, courage to speak truth, and contribute to others.
