I've been meaning to read this book for AGES! My friend recently said to me: "If you're able to please everyone, you're doing something wrong." So true - if you want to make a meaningful difference for yourself and for other people, you're gonna piss someone off along the way and have to deal with it!
I would like to comment on: "If you're able to please everyone, you're doing something wrong." The goal is to be yourself and understand what brings you happiness. This happiness might come from pleasing people around you, making them happy and avoiding conflict. It does not necessarily mean that "If you're able to please everyone, you're doing something wrong."
Reading honestly frr is one of the best things I’ve done this year. I try to read at least a book a week by diving the pages into 5 days. Your overall focus, verbal recall, and even memory changes. I love it.
@@Atlas92936 Essentially remembering what you read and hear. I find myself very focused and present within the moment during my literature sessions. The more you continue to read it’s like a muscle that strengthens within your brain that enables you to do that task more efficiently and you start to notice it seeps into other areas of your life and for me that was verbal recall and memory. I’d also like to add I’ve also noticed clear sentence structure and iterating my points much more intellectually then I previously was able to.
I did the same thing couple years ago. I will be doing this again. I have been reading more fictional and want to read more non fictional. I have started going to library with my daughter and we enjoy spending time picking out our books.
@@lestersalamba2840 I've been re-reading Deep Work by Cal Newport and this sounds exactly something I should do to improve my ability to focus. Thank you.
As simple and naive as it may sound, I became a lot happier ever since I decided to make happiness a priority. Here's one example, we're always told the same old things like eat healthy, get moderate physical activity, have a consistent sleep schedule, practice gratitude, etc. And I think on a surface level we all KNOW that those are beneficial to us but despite KNOWING, we often don't DO. And it's totally understandable too, because much of these things may be difficult or boring or simply unappealing... But it's almost a fact of life that IF we did those, our general quality of life will increase. Over the years I gradually started to prioritize things that made me healthy and happy, and life has treated me a lot better since.
I was about eight, visiting my maternal grandparents, when my wise granny said to me, “You can’t please everyone.” She was astute enough to pick up on my people pleasing ways. She passed away last year but her wise words are with me. The courage to accept that not everybody is going to like you comes with the understanding that you can’t please everybody.
I’ve actually heard about this book! “The courage to be disliked” is definitely on top of my to read list so this book club episode is perfect 🙏🏽 being able to take wisdom from books to create a happier and healthier life is why I love your channel and keeps me in the pursuit of self growth
@@lestersalamba2840 Hi again, Patrick from Mind Life Flow here...yes, Thich Naht Hanh has some wonderful books and insights in general. I agree! This book is also very good - different but worthwhile.
OK just a point about trauma, that yes the meaning we make out of it is very significant, but also it's a real thing around the function of our nervous system, meaning you can actually not remember the trauma (lot's of people blockout memories of childhood trauma) but still suffer the symptoms of trauma. I guess the most accurate way to say it is there are many dimensions of trauma, and our cognitive processing of the experience is important and can be worked with, but our nervous system also needs to be addressed. I don't think many people understood that until the last few decades, where Somatic Psychology has gained a lot of recognition as an important discipline.
I couldn’t agree more. I was dealing with continued trauma in my marriage and although I didn’t dwell on those events and i stay relatively happy eventually i realized that my body felt constantly tired. I thought i might have an autoimmune disease after a year I realized that it was from my trauma. It was like my body had been rewired and i had to work on internal healing. It took work and i realized that even though i was strong everyone had limits
6:25 - "Constructing the emotion of anger and using it for a justification for your action you chose to do anyway". Will Smith popped into my mind immediately after initially laughing along at the joke, then looking at his wife and making a choice to act and construct the anger afterwards
Yes I agree. It wasn’t a trauma response that’s instant as soon as the comment was made. There was a time period where he could’ve turned the other cheek.
This was not just a review but a video on how to actually read books. Great work Ali😊 Can't imagine a book review being so good ❤❤this level of authenticity and connection with your audience is really awe-inspiring
I decided to read this amazing book, after you and Taimoor mentioned it on one of your Q&A videos. It is quite good. It goes deep in question and its answers as to why we can't find happiness and then provides good solution. Boy portraits our complications well and Philosophers gives proper answer and advice. It really well written book.
I totally agree with having the choice to be angry when coffee is spilled on you. If the person spilling the coffee is clearly someone strong enough to break you like a twig, you are most likely going to not get angry (for self-preservation’s sake) and tell the spiller to not worry about it. Or maybe the spiller is an overly beautiful woman and the spilling “victim” is a single male looking for a girlfriend. The victim will also most likely choose to not get angry and display how calm and collected he is (displaying he is a suitable mate) to the beautiful woman. Thanks for the book review and video.
I love the way he appears so genuine and truthful in his speech, I wish that I could also pratice and work on my communication skills to be that transparent through my thoughts to speech.
There is a part 2 of this book too and I actually try to follow all the teachings. It makes so much sense to me. Like how we are all connected, and be okay with being normal, and we actually feel the feelings that benefit us so we have control of what we choose to feel. So much good wisdom in there.
I love the separate task thing. It helped me with my break up. We have different struggles no matter how much we try to do it together, sometimes it's better if we do it alone. ♥️
Honestly Ali, watching your book reviews changed my perspective on book reading and on life. You make it so appealing and interesting. As someone who was never interested in books I’ve become INVESTED in becoming a better person. Watching you has inspired me to start my own book review series, so thank you and keep going 💪🏽💯
I love this review, a bit tired of the trauma and therapeutic culture. In my life I have realized that adding value to something and being acknowledged gives true meaning and happiness. Although my job is pretty boring from the outside (lecturer at University) but I love being with young people and the whole environment of academia. I am very happy I quit accounts though it was very lucrative and did switch to social sciences. Thanks ali for sharing this book .
Ali you've inspired me to start reading for this new year because of all the possible ways you could improve in life. It's not always consistent as I don't always have time but I try to find a little reading time each week. Thank you!!
So that's why I feel happy helping people. That was validating. I was worried I was being a people pleaser. Probably a balance between the two. Thank you for making this book review Ali! 📚
Sure, we all do. But the book actually says, "don't look for validation" :) Honestly, it's not just helping others and being happy; there is much more to it. "Contribution to others" has been explained superbly in the book. For eg., how do newborns contribute?
That is an amazing book I have read during 2022..the more I read it, the more I realised or started to understand myself in a rather simple yet interesting way... it's great for those who struggle to know or understand themselves, especially who think a lot about themselves...the part where "all problems are interpersonal problems" helped me understand relationships as a very important thing as a human being.
My takeaways: - focus on my tasks, and let others focus on theirs. Other people's opinions are theirs, not mine to worry about. This approach will get rid of many of our life (relationship) problems. - our interpretation of events in our lives make them good or bad, helpful or harmful. We can choose. - our emotions don't justify our response to stimuli. Emotions don't dictate our actions, we always get to choose our own actions. - learn to be okay being disliked. It's not our responsibility/task to please everyone. That's up to them.
3 Tips to Better Self Awareness: A thought diary is a foundational place to begin increasing self-awareness. Keep track of thoughts that pop up in the form of an automatic reaction. Track your level of emotion to the stimulus (Your reactions - these can be mental or physical) Amazing video ALI!
As a parent you nailed it. I want to add that it makes your highs higher and your lows lower. So while daily you can't enjoy your hobbies and alone time as you would when you are single or without kids, when you see them hit a home run and the smile on their face....indescribable how happy you are
Ali, thanks for the video! The idea to separate tasks is brilliant, I have been thinking something similar, but used to put it somehow different and I think this description is absolutely genius!
I read this book about an year ago and was quite fascinated with theories that look extremely contrasting to our beliefs and have also recommended it to a lot of people... It sure was a great book✌
This is a great video, thank you. I am going to put that book on my list, it sounds really great. One of the best things about getting older is that worry about being disliked subsides. It is really helpful because you cannot always be liked especially at work and especially if you are in charge.
love everything u do. super helpful. but the part u talk about kids and how u find it hard they are a joy is so funny with the ''apparently" and the "kind off" and the hand gestures super funny. XD P.S again love what you do. gives me courage to believe in myself and work on my goals
That discourse around trauma reminded me of a book I read years ago, the famous "Man's search for meaning". As I wrote, I read it years ago, but if I remember well the idea was that trauma can "faced" by find some purpose in life.
as one of the learnings from the book, thank you for recommending this reading (this is not a compliment). This was very important and brought new perspectives for me. Thank you for sharing your insights and learnings as well!
Your best vid in years Ali , (been watching for 4-5 years )you could easily have spent an hour on this topic .wonderfully thought provoking , engaging and stimulating bravo .i will rewatch this again its that good .
I have a Masters in psychology and still didn't hear much about Adler until I read this book... It's one of my favorite books & the concept of tasks and separating my tasks from everyone else's immensely improved my outlook on life and my mental health.
Thanks for the great content and ‘quality’ videos! Love it, keep it going! Suggestion: If you can make podcasts for such videos it’ll be a cherry on top!
Thanks a lot for this Video Ali! I found it very insightful, the lessons and insights you shared make good sense to me and I hope I can implement some of these tips in my life for a better experience. 🙏
I like Alfred Adler. His book Understanding Human Nature is extremely insightful and helpful to understand ourselves, families, and the world a bit more! Leading us to better relationships
Thanks for your sharing. Currently I had someone that shouted at me and yes it was his choice to choose how he channels the anger into the action to shout. He was trying to normalize or justify the action he did to me! It was so rude and I didn't really want to talk about it to him anymore as he seems not even realizing he shouted at me and try to blame me because of his anger! So ridiculous. But now I understand I won't think about it as it's not my task to think about it now.
I absolutely LOVE book club on your channel! I like how easy-to-digest the info is when you mix in casual lingo of "the original stoicism bros" (love it!) with the full breakdown of the book. Truly the best.
I personally found that my courage to be disliked has grown over many years of self development. I am now perfectly ok with being disliked knowing that I do my best to live my life being authentic, kind, and brave, as well as accepting that I could never be liked by everyone - which is a liberating thought. Great video as always.
Thanks Abdaal : I just on verge of finishing same book : I totally agree : you discussed the essence of this great book which seems feels weird and usual : Keep up the good work : Appreciation and Gratitude ..!!
Benefits of reading according to science lol 1. Better vocabulary 2. Better communication skills 3. Stress relief 4. Depression relief 5. Health benefits 6. Slows age related cognitive decline 7. Makes it easier to empathize 8. Improves imagination. Please can I get at least 10 likes
After 10 minutes of Ali Abaal's video I feel like I've watched a whole movie . He talks super fast and , for a english learner like me , i'ts kind of a never ending video . It has a lot of information .
When I saw the book I right away knew I had to write a comment because of how much the book changed my life and opinions. One of the best book I have ever read.
Your point at 5:02 seems up my feelings about self-help books completely! Take the points that work for me and ignore the ones that don't. No need to buy in to everything the author is promoting. Love your book reviews!
While high views and likes count surely will make a content creator feels happy and accomplished, I want to let you know that as a viewer, your videos have always benefit me. I listen to your videos almost everyday and really appreciate how you share with us your thought process. I will read this book simply because of the way you presented it and shared the interesting points in it. Keep doing what you doing, Ali. You are doing good for millions of people.
I've been meaning to read this book for AGES! My friend recently said to me: "If you're able to please everyone, you're doing something wrong." So true - if you want to make a meaningful difference for yourself and for other people, you're gonna piss someone off along the way and have to deal with it!
If you’re looking for books relatively similar I suggest Happiness by Thich Hanh. So much wisdom and insight coming from a monk.
I would like to comment on: "If you're able to please everyone, you're doing something wrong."
The goal is to be yourself and understand what brings you happiness. This happiness might come from pleasing people around you, making them happy and avoiding conflict. It does not necessarily mean that "If you're able to please everyone, you're doing something wrong."
This is exactly why people are unhappy. They live every day lives trying to please the people surrounding them
You don't "have to deal with it". That's the other persons task ;)
Which book can u please tell me ?@@tanyasharma2864

These reviews honestly change my way of reading and interpreting self help books.
Thank you for being authentically you🙏🏼
After 10 minutes of Ali Abaal's video I feel like I've watched a whole movie . He talks super fast and , for a english learner like me , i'ts kind of a never ending video . It has a lot of information .
I love this book! It’s been one of my favorites for a while! I’d recommend it to anyone and everyone :)
love the last point so much❤️
this is an amazing book. Im just on the third chapter. thank you!
When I saw the book I right away knew I had to write a comment because of how much the book changed my life and opinions. One of the best book I have ever read.
Awesome reading! 👏
Your point at 5:02 seems up my feelings about self-help books completely! Take the points that work for me and ignore the ones that don't. No need to buy in to everything the author is promoting. Love your book reviews!
