Vulnerability

“Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage.”

- Brene Brown

Whole-hearted living

Discussion: When has being vulnerable in the workplace worked for you or against you?

““People who wade into discomfort and vulnerability and tell the truth about their stories are the real badasses.”

- Brene Brown

In a nutshell

The Arena

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.

- Theodore Roosevelt

If you are not in the arena getting your ass kicked – then I’m not

interested in your feedback!
