THE SEQUEL TO THE 10 MILLION COPY BESTSELLER, THE COURAGE TO BE DISLIKED.

Embrace the psychology of courage. Find true contentment.

As with The Courage To Be Disliked, we follow a conversation between a philosopher and a student. The philosopher believes the key to a life of happiness and fulfilment lies in changing the way we think. Patiently, he explains to the young man the 'psychology of courage', taking him through how to build stronger relationships based on self-acceptance and respect, and demonstrating the profound changes it will bring to the way we live our lives.

True happiness is within your reach.
