Review
This book is a direct continuation of The Courage to be Disliked and it promised practical instructions on how to apply Adler’s philosophies in life, so I picked this up.
In it, the youngster returns to the old philosopher and wants practical steps on how to implement Adlerian philosophy in his teaching career.
I was not super into the book in the first few chapters. That changed when the philosopher started talking about the three types of life tasks in detail. See, I’m not an educator, so I was not able to connect to the first few chapters. But when he started talking about work relationships - about how before you get a work, ability may play a part, but after you get a job, it’s your sincerity and the way you do your work that counts, I got hooked.
It was a nice read. Maybe not as shocking as The Courage to be Disliked, because I was already familiar. But like the first book, it gave me plenty to think about.

I finished reading Atomic Habits and The Courage to be Happy this week.

It was such a breath of fresh air, both because I have not read a book like this before in my life, and because the last two books I've read - The Courage to be Happy and Breakneck were non-fiction books.
