Publisher’s Summary
In this follow-up to the international bestseller and TikTok sensation The Courage to Be Disliked, discover how to reconnect with your true self, experience true happiness, and live the life you want.
What if one simple choice could unlock your destiny?
Already a major international bestseller, this eye-opening and accessible follow-up to the “compelling” (Marc Andreessen) worldwide phenomenon The Courage to be Disliked shares the powerful teachings of Alfred Adler, one of the giants of 19th-century psychology, through another illuminating dialogue between the philosopher and the young man.
Three years after their first conversation, the young man finds himself disillusioned and disappointed, convinced Adler’s teachings only work in theory, not in practice. But through further discussions between the philosopher and the young man, they deepen their own understandings of Adler’s powerful teachings, and learn the tools needed to apply Adler’s teachings to the chaos of everyday life.
To be read on its own or as a companion to the bestselling first book, The Courage to Be Happy reveals a bold new way of thinking and living, empowering you to let go of the shackles of past trauma and the expectations of others, and to use this freedom to create the life you truly desire.
Plainspoken yet profoundly moving, reading The Courage to Be Happy will light a torch with the power to illuminate your life and brighten the world as we know it. Now you can discover the courage to choose happiness.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
4/5 stars — “Excellent content If you can handle the narrator. “
Literally everything one of the narrators says is in a childish, adversarial and whiny tone. Holy hell. The whole book could have done without his commentary entirely.— Jack P, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Everyone should read this”
This is the go to book for me now whenever I am in emotional stress. It has changed me immensely in a beautiful way. Thanks a million to the authors. The read out was awesome as well!— Ya, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “immediately happier”
Another great read and continued exploring of Adler’s work. It should be said that psychology actually evolved from philosophy. Just like with the last book, there are many practical applications of the topics and they all make sense. Particularly if you have studied psychology like I have. This stuff should be taught in schools so that we can build the good habits suggested within. a must read for everyone— Andre, Audible listener
