Many people achieve nothing because they underestimate their abilities and belittle themselves, thus minimizing their achievements. ——Donrad Hilton, USA.

There is always a kind of person who lives in isolation and loneliness because of low self-esteem. Low self-esteem is not only due to other people’s eyes and words, but more from the weakness and giving up in one’s own heart, closing oneself off. In a world of inferiority complex. People with low self-esteem can definitely come out. The value of each person does not lie in the amount of money he or she has, but in the happiness that comes from the heart. Don’t give up the smile on your face, never give up happiness, and your love for life. Have a positive attitude towards life. As long as we are alive, we must live a better life!

Lao Wei is a famous "honest man". More than ten years ago, his wife was seriously ill and the family had no money. Lao Wei did not go out to borrow some money to treat his wife's illness. Thinking of his father-in-law's contemptuous expression, he did not go to see his wife. People borrow money. Lao Wei forced his sick wife to stay at home, but his wife died. Lao Wei could not bear such a blow and committed suicide. The only way he could express his sadness was to take all the sleeping pills in the house. This may be the bravest move in Lao Wei's life. After being discovered by neighbors and rescued, Lao Wei became even more silent and his response became slower. Since then, Lao Wei has never spoken to anyone. Lao Wei can unconsciously feel the discrimination and ridicule of everyone. In fact, it is because he himself does not raise his eyes to look at others, and his back becomes more and more hunched. Lao Wei always feels that after passing by, someone will whisper. He never talked to anyone, so loneliness always accompanied him, like a shadow, and the loneliness slowly seeped into his bones. Every time the old man thinks of his wife's resentful eyes when she was dying, her heart will ache. Lao Wei often sees his long-braided wife appearing at the door. Lao Wei often talks to himself and smiles on his face. The son is used to it. The son knows that his father is talking to his mother!

Lao Wei has two acres of dry land. He has been farming for several years, but the price of grain is low and he cannot make money from selling it. Either there is a drought and sprinkler irrigation is needed, but there is no money to be made. The old man felt that he was useless, with no connections, no flexible mind, no smooth words, no... just like his father-in-law said, 'This kid has no future.' Lao Wei raised some ducks and geese, sold eggs to support the family, and also sold vegetables from the small vegetable garden. Now the old man is only in his fifties, but he looks like an old man in his sixties. His gray hair is always uneven in length, and it takes him a long time to get a haircut in order to save money; the horizontal wrinkles on his forehead are like three V-shapes, and his brows are always wrinkled, as if there are knots in his heart that can never be solved; his eyes It's as if you can't open your eyes, half-open them, as if you don't want to raise your eyes to look at people; your face is always unshaven, and the wrinkles on your face are like shriveled apples beaten by frost. His face; his wilted hands were full of calluses, black and full of cracks. He washed his hands every day, but in the cracks, the hard dead skin was always black and could not be washed away. Lao Wei will never see new clothes on his body because he never buys new clothes.

One day Lao Wei deliberately found a set of clean clothes and put them on. This is the eighth time Lao Wei has come to the agency, and he wants to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to personally ask whether his subsistence allowance has been approved. The security guard refused to let Lao Wei go up: "Don't go up today. The leaders from the province have come. You can go back! When the leaders come down and see me, I will be scolded again." (Inspirational story www.lizhi123.net) Lao Wei turned around and came to the canteen of the government agency. Lao Wei's niece cooked here. Lao Wei's happiest thing was to eat some leftover food from the government canteen. Every time I come here, I will take some home to satisfy my craving. Because Lao Wei usually never buys meat. My niece said: "Eat something and go quickly! Did you see that 'Toyota Boss'? The leader will drive to pick up the provincial leader soon." Lao Wei had no idea that the car was worth more than one million yuan, but he just felt that the food provided by the agency was too extravagant and wasteful. Lao Wei will never be able to eat such rich food in his life. I vaguely felt that every time the civil affairs staff said something pale and feeble: "Funds are tight, there are no quotas yet..." Lao Wei took the leftovers and took a detour back home. He was afraid of giving up to the leaders in the field in front of the provincial leaders. "Shameful", I thought kindly: It's not easy for the provincial leaders to come to inspect! I don’t know how long it took me to come back.

Not long after Lao Wei arrived home, the door was full of cars. In addition to the 'Toyota Domineering', there were also many luxurious cars that he had never seen before. The old man is so stupid, what's wrong? The field leader drove to find me! No way! How is it possible? Lao Wei hurriedly came out and blasted away the squawking chickens, ducks and geese in the yard. When I looked up, I saw that the field leader was hugging a middle-aged man, who seemed to be the intellectual young man "Xiao Wang Hao" who went to the countryside here. Lao Wei's usually expressionless face had a bright smile. 'Little Wang Hao' hugged Lao Wei and said, "Oh! My brother! How are you?" Lao Wei subconsciously dodged, and Lao Wei suddenly felt that he was It was very dirty and I didn't have time to clean it. What is the feeling that Lao Wei cannot express in his heart? There is no way to explain the bitterness and bitterness of these years. I can’t blame anyone but my own inability. Lao Wei smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, okay! Everything is very good!" The field leader looked envious: "This is Vice Governor Wang. He didn't even enter the office but had to come to see your brother first! Hahaha! Brother You are so lucky!" After entering the house, the director himself was dumbfounded. The house was empty, with only one black and white TV set. Who would watch black and white TV nowadays? But the house was kept clean. Lao Wei quickly wiped the kang with his hands and asked everyone to sit down.

Governor Wang asked Lao Wei: "If you have any difficulties, tell the director, Lao Wei is my savior. I think he rescued me from the water back then." On the director's plump head, the sparse hair was full of moisture. Beads of sweat broke out, and he said sincerely: "Brother Lao Wei, tell me what difficulties you have!" Lao Wei's voice was low and cowardly: "I want to apply for a subsistence allowance, and I went there several times..." Before he finished speaking, he looked nervously The director's face. The director's sweat flowed down to his fat cheeks, which turned red and white for a while. He nodded his head and promised to go to the government office tomorrow to apply for the subsistence allowance. Governor Wang slowly got to know Lao Wei. Lao Wei looked happily at the old Xiao Wang who actually came back to visit him. For a moment, he felt like he was dreaming...

After that, Lao Wei was like It was a different person, and Lao Wei himself felt that his back was straightened, and his energy level was much better. Lao Wei took the initiative to strike up a conversation with everyone and felt that everyone liked him. Lao Wei would take the initiative to visit the house, and whenever anyone asked about rescuing people, Lao Wei would happily tell the story. Even though it was over and over again, he would tell it with relish every time. From then on, Lao Wei would be the guest of honor at any house in the village.

From then on, Lao Wei's home was bustling with people... Lao Wei found that he could live a better life...
