There is no innovation and creativity without failure. Period. - Brene Brown

There is no innovation and creativity without failure. Period. Brene Brown

Innovation, Failure, Without

I don't have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness - it's right in front of me if I'm paying attention and practicing gratitude. Brene Brown

Happiness, Gratitude, Me

A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don't function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick. Brene Brown

Love, Deep, Hurt

I spent a lot of years trying to outrun or outsmart vulnerability by making things certain and definite, black and white, good and bad. My inability to lean into the discomfort of vulnerability limited the fullness of those important experiences that are wrought with uncertainty: Love, belonging, trust, joy, and creativity to name a few. Brene Brown

Love, Trust, Good

The truth is: Belonging starts with self-acceptance. Your level of belonging, in fact, can never be greater than your level of self-acceptance, because believing that you're enough is what gives you the courage to be authentic, vulnerable and imperfect. Brene Brown

Courage, Truth, Truth Is

Social media has given us this idea that we should all have a posse of friends when in reality, if we have one or two really good friends, we are lucky. Brene Brown

Friends, Good, Social Media

You're imperfect, and you're wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging. Brene Brown

Love, Struggle, Belonging

Vulnerability is the birthplace of connection and the path to the feeling of worthiness. If it doesn't feel vulnerable, the sharing is probably not constructive. Brene Brown

Path, Sharing, Connection

Vulnerability is about showing up and being seen. It's tough to do that when we're terrified about what people might see or think. Brene Brown

People, Think, See

What's the greater risk? Letting go of what people think - or letting go of how I feel, what I believe, and who I am? Brene Brown

I Am, Believe, Risk

Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others. Brene Brown

Love, Courage, Risk

'Crazy-busy' is a great armor, it's a great way for numbing. What a lot of us do is that we stay so busy, and so out in front of our life, that the truth of how we're feeling and what we really need can't catch up with us. Brene Brown

Life, Truth, Great

Perfectionism is not the same thing as striving to be our best. Perfectionism is not about healthy achievement and growth; it's a shield. Brene Brown

Best, Growth, Achievement

Shame is the most powerful, master emotion. It's the fear that we're not good enough. Brene Brown

Fear, Good, Powerful

I'm not a parenting expert. In fact, I'm not sure that I even believe in the idea of 'parenting experts.' I'm an engaged, imperfect parent and a passionate researcher. I'm an experienced mapmaker and a stumbling traveler. Like many of you, parenting is by far my boldest and most daring adventure. Brene Brown

Adventure, Parenting, Parent

I carry a small sheet of paper in my wallet that has written on it the names of people whose opinions of me matter. To be on that list, you have to love me for my strengths and struggles. Brene Brown

Love, Me, Small

When you get to a place where you understand that love and belonging, your worthiness, is a birthright and not something you have to earn, anything is possible. Brene Brown

Love, Anything Is Possible

Waking up every day and loving someone who may or may not love us back, whose safety we can't ensure, who may stay in our lives or may leave without a moment's notice, who may be loyal to the day they die or betray us tomorrow - that's vulnerability. Brene Brown

Love, Safety, Day

When you stop caring what people think, you lose your capacity for connection. When you're defined by it, you lose our capacity for vulnerability. Brene Brown

Caring, People, Think

Vulnerability is not weakness. And that myth is profoundly dangerous. Brene Brown

Weakness, Vulnerability

Through my research, I found that vulnerability is the glue that holds relationships together. It's the magic sauce. Brene Brown

Together, Research, Magic

If you think dealing with issues like worthiness and authenticity and vulnerability are not worthwhile because there are more pressing issues, like the bottom line or attendance or standardized test scores, you are sadly, sadly mistaken. It underpins everything. Brene Brown

Think, You, Authenticity

Many people think of perfectionism as striving to be your best, but it is not about self-improvement; it's about earning approval and acceptance. Brene Brown

Best, Acceptance, People

When we're looking for compassion, we need someone who is deeply rooted, is able to bend and, most of all, embraces us for our strengths and struggles. Brene Brown

Compassion, Looking, Bend

I think our capacity for wholeheartedness can never be greater than our willingness to be broken-hearted. It means engaging with the world from a place of vulnerability and worthiness. Brene Brown

World, Think, Place
