Since they mention Jung, this is a good time to mention Adler and “The Courage to be Disliked.”
For me it’s been a where-have-you-been-all-my-life book. Recently, it has also helped take the sting out of a relationship recently going sideways.

- dang 1y agoAdler is barely mentioned any more. For most of the 20th century people would say "Freud, Jung, Adler" as a trio. It will be interesting if Adler gets rediscovered/rehabilitated.
- chiefalchemist 1y agoI’ve only recently discovered and read “Courage” and wish I had read it in HS or college. Where Freud blames your past, Adler says you now are accountable for you. Be an adult. The world would be a better place if more ppl subscribed to Adler.
