"What is self-esteem? First of all, as human beings, we know our own existence. Second, we need to assess the value of our existence. At the beginning of the lecture, Wang Yanan introduced the definition of self-esteem to the reader. When talking about the original intention of writing, she said that she did not want to guide others, but wanted to help everyone know themselves and expand the dimension and space of thinking.

In the current society, many people have cognitive biases in self-esteem, people are more and more likely to feel offended and self-esteem is broken, Wang Yanan believes that this has a certain relationship with the fierce competition in various industries and the increasing mental pressure of people, "Each of us has become more concerned about the eyes of others, but ignores the self." In fact, we should respect our feelings more and stick to our ideas. ”
"Does self-esteem, self-confidence, inferiority and lack of love have anything to do with it?" "How to protect your boundaries without hurting others", "How to defend yourself when you feel that you don't deserve to be loved"... Readers at the scene raised their own confusions, and Wang Yanan also combined his own experience and specific cases to answer their questions carefully and meticulously.
According to reports, Wang Yanan's guest Bookstore has opened four consecutive story meetings, inviting photographer Wild, investor Wang Wenlei, writer Wu Jiajun, painter Hou Weiwei and other experts and scholars from various industries to share their books and life stories at the story meeting.

Zhao Dengcui hopes to stick to the story club and invite more experts and scholars to come to the bookstore to share their good books and stories.
