The Courage to be Ordinary
Translated by Haydn Trowell
The inspiring guide to letting go of competition, reducing stress and living a happier, more authentic life - from the 15-million-copy bestselling author of the Japanese self-help phenomenon, The Courage to Be Disliked
Are you tired of trying?
Break the Burnout Cycle. Choose Ordinary.
In The Courage to be Ordinary, Ichiro Kishimi speaks to everyone burned out by hustle, comparison and the pressure to prove their worth. His message is disarmingly simple- stop trying to stand out.
Being ordinary isn't failure - it's freedom. Freedom from constant competition, from chasing approval, from feeling habitually tense. Letting go of the need to be special will finally give your strengths the space they need to shine.
It's time to release the pressure and embrace the superpower you really need to succeed- The Power of Ordinary.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
