The Courage to Be Disliked Summary

Welcome, dear audience! Here I am with another book review. Today we will talk about “The Courage to Be Disliked  Fumitake Koga and Ichiro Kishimi.” The book is a philosophical approach towards the perception of a trauma.
The book will provide you with mindsets that get you back to living a life that is more true to yourself, far away from always seeking the approval of others and constant people-pleasing. We sometimes distract ourselves from the main goal, probably because we don’t have the courage to deal rejection. People-pleasing and the habit of seeking validation from people make us move toward the less passionate goal, which does not belong to us. This results in nonsatisfaction. Excuses can actually prevent you from getting what you want. We blame people, circumstances, childhood traumas, and other reasons for not being able to achieve what we ever wanted.

Eliminate the need for recognition; just keep going and start, and you’ll definitely achieve it. But if you don’t start, you may regret it afterwards.
