This book uses the classical technique of Greek philosophy, "Dialogues", through the debate between young people and philosophers, around the core question of "how can people achieve happiness", launched a profound and enlightening discussion.

The book quotes the philosophy of Adler, the "father of self-inspiration", whose core idea is "self-determinism theory". According to the theory, human behavior is determined by the inner free will and the influence of the external environment, and people can choose their own behavior and lifestyle, so as to master their own destiny and realize their own ideals and goals.

1. "The book's emphasis on" self-determinism theory "gave me a profound understanding that each of us is in charge of our own lives. In the past, I was used to blaming external circumstances and the influence of others, believing that my misfortune was caused by external causes. But after reading this book, I have come to understand that although external circumstances do have an impact, it is our own choices and attitudes that ultimately determine our behavior and lifestyle. I began to learn to take responsibility and face challenges in life rather than passively accept my fate."

2. "I was also impressed by the discussion of courage in the book. In the past, I was always afraid of being hated or rejected by others, so I often chose to escape or compromise. But now I know that courage is not the absence of fear, but the persistence of one's beliefs and goals in the face of fear and insecurity. I began to try to express my own opinions and ideas bravely, and stopped caring so much about the evaluation of others. This change has made me more confident and determined to follow the path I want in life."

Sum up
