Stop people-pleasing and achieve true happiness.
A philosopher and a student have a discussion. Their conversation reveals a profoundly liberating way of thinking: by developing the courage to change, set healthy boundaries and resist the impulse to please others, it is possible to find genuine and lasting happiness.

I didn’t like everything about this combination philosophy/self-help book, but BOY did it tell me what I needed to hear!
I hadn’t ever heard of Alfred Adler but his psychological theories are interesting, forward-thinking and immensely appealing to someone like me who likes to get stuck in and DO things.
I’ve been thinking about personal tasks, and horizontal vs. vertical relationships, and being earnest, and many other topics that come up, ever since I finished the book.
All in all this was a very valuable read for me.
It has shifted the way I think and given me options to increase my peace of mind.
