By openly admitting my lack of knowledge, I'm paving the way for learning and improving my understanding. Brown encourages us to embrace experiences that may be uncomfortable - in my case, it can be speaking up when I don't understand something in a group project instead of silently trying to figure it out on my own.Īfter reading this book, I've realized that vulnerability is not my weakness, but rather my greatest measure of courage. Sometimes, we may feel embarrassed or ashamed of certain feelings, which makes it harder to truly connect with others. It made me realize that I've been in social settings where I felt like I was fitting in (participating in an activity just because everyone else was doing it) which only made me more disconnected from myself and the group. One thing I really related to was when Brown addressed the difference between belonging and just fitting in.Īccording to Brown, true belonging is only felt when we have the courage to share our most authentic selves with other people.
