ON BEING IMPERFECT

Wanting to share some quotes from Brene Brown (author of  The Gifts of Imperfection).


I hate that I can't remember whose blog I read these quotes on .... (help me out if you saw the original post).

Brene Brown was speaking at Blissdom and the author of the blog shared this from the talk that she gave.  They spoke to me and I wanted to share them with you.





  • Connection is what gives our life meaning and purpose.”








  • “Vulnerability is the key to loving and living with our whole hearts.”








  • “Worthiness has no prerequisites.” 








  • “When you say you don’t care what people think and you mean it, you have lost the capacity to connect.”






  • (I keep coming back to this one ... because on the surface of things, I don't care what people think ... but I think I really mean that I am comfortable in my own skin and don't try to impress anyone.  When it boils down to whether I care what people think about what I DO ... then I think this fits)




  • “Find and be a friend that would move a body” 





  • (Click HERE for the rest of Brene's story on this one.  It's good!)




  • and finally, she shared what Oprah has hanging outside of her office…LOVE this. “You are responsible for the energy you bring into this room.






  • Good stuff, eh?
