I’m currently listening to the audiobook THE COURAGE TO BE DISLIKED, by Ichiro Kishimi and Fumitake Koga. I wasn’t familiar with Alfred Adler’s psychology theory. The way it is presented in here makes me think that it has overlaps with the Daoist belief in not seeking external approval from others.

Every physical medium for the visual arts has its constraints in expressing concepts without words. I love words, but sometimes it feels like cheating when using them.
