Embrace vulnerability to live a wholehearted life from "summary" of Daring Greatly by Brené Brown
In order to live a wholehearted life, we must be willing to embrace vulnerability. It is not enough to simply acknowledge vulnerability - we must actively lean into it, allowing ourselves to be open and exposed. This may seem counterintuitive, as vulnerability is often seen as a weakness. However, vulnerability is actually the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity. When we are willing to be vulnerable, we are able to connect with others on a deeper level. We can show up as our authentic selves, rather than putting on a facade to protect ourselves from rejection or judgment. By being vulnerable, we allow ourselves to be seen and truly known by others. This level of openness and honesty can lead to more meaningful relationships and a greater sense of belonging. Additionally, embracing vulnerability allows us to experience life more fully. When we are willing to take risks and put ourselves out there, we open ourselves up to new experiences and opportunities. We are able to pursue our passions and chase our dreams without fear holding us back. This willingness to embrace vulnerability can lead to a more fulfilling and authentic life. It is important to remember that vulnerability is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of strength. It takes courage to be vulnerable, to show up and be seen, even when we are afraid. By embracing vulnerability, we are able to live with a greater sense of authenticity and connection. We can let go of the need to be perfect and instead focus on being real. This is the key to living a wholehearted life.
