Keisuke Kudo releases self-understanding workbook ‘The Courage to Not Change’

Keisuke Kudo, founder of Kawaranai Yuuki Co., Ltd., has released a new self-understanding workbook titled ‘The Courage to Not Change’ (Kawaranai Yuuki) through publisher Fusosha. The book, released on August 4, 2026, is designed for individuals feeling pressured to constantly change themselves.

Drawing from Kudo’s eight years of coaching experience with over 1,200 clients, the book utilizes 17 interactive exercises to help readers identify their inherent traits rather than attempting to force personality shifts. The methodology focuses on identifying ‘self-keywords’ and ‘switch-keywords’ to tap into existing internal motivations.

A core component of the book categorizes human anxieties into four distinct types—Mountain, Flower, Fire, and Moon—arguing that these anxieties often mask underlying talents. By understanding these types, readers can better identify suitable work environments and interpersonal dynamics that align with their natural dispositions.
