Alex reflects on the principles and philosophy of Alfred Adler and ‘The Courage to be Disliked’
He shares how if the human goal is to belong and feel significant this can be achieved through understanding separation of task, self-acceptance, confidence in others and making a contribution to society.
When you concentrate on the things you can control, understand that life is a journey with every aspect to be enjoyed and make a contribution that brings you freedom you will be able to successfully live in the moment and bring meaning to the world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Understand the separation of tasks – the areas you are responsible for and those that are the tasks of others.
Self-acceptance - you need to accept that everyone is individual and accept yourself as an irreplaceable individual.
Confidence in others – you need to have a holistic view and treat others as comrades
Have confidence that others will behave in a way that is in accordance with their beliefs, values and who they are.
Contribution to society - we can contribute in many different ways and on many levels, our presence itself is a contribution to society.
Freedom is what we can feel from making a contribution and helping others.
Freedom is self-worth and feeling that you are making a contribution without any contribution from others
Life has no meaning apart from the meaning we place on it.
People give different meaning to the world because of how they see situations differently.
Concentrate on the negative and this is how you will see the world but you can change your view through what you do, how you contribute.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Life is a dance and you have to enjoy every step and movement; it’s about living in the moment’
‘Concentrate on the things you can control. What others think of us is not our task’
‘The way that you feel should be based on what you are doing without approval from others’
