Inspiring Quotes from Berne Brown Netflix movie

[smc1972]

Today my T had me watch the Netflix movie of a Phd who studies people fear, shame and etc. The had some very interesting quotes that I need to get in to my mind.

There was one she read really hit her was by Theodore Roosevelt,

“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, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”​

Vulnerability is not weakness," "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the ability to move forward in the face of it," and "What we know matters, but who we are matters more." She also emphasizes the importance of belonging, connection, and authenticity in wholehearted living.

Here are some more of her impactful quotes:

• On Vulnerability: "Staying vulnerable is a risk we have to take if we want to experience connection,".
  
  
• On Courage: "We can choose courage or we can choose comfort, but we can't have both. Not at the same time,".

• • On Belonging: "The opposite of belonging is fitting in,".
  • On Perfectionism: "Perfectionism is a 20-ton shield,".
  • On Leadership: "A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for finding the potential in people and processes,".
  • On Connection: "Connection is why we're here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives,".
  • On Authenticity: "Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day,".
  • On Shame: "Shame is the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging," according to research from Brené Brown.
  • On Boundaries: "Nothing is sustainable without boundaries," says Brené Brown.
  • On Empathy: "Empathy has no script. There is no right way or wrong way to do it,".

I love that quote, I have used it before, mostly to tell people to fuck off, when I am aggressive I am pretty good at talking down to people. In the right context that quote is very effective.
