TED Talks - Day 2

 
 
Summary:
 
Storeyteller/researcher Brene Brown studied stories of vulnerability to explain the human connection.
 
Key Points:
  • People who have a strong sense of love & belonging, believe they are worth of love & belonging.
  • These people are whole hearted people who have a sense of courage to be imperfect, compassion to be kind to themselves first and connections as a result of authenticity. Most importantly they embrace vulnerability.
    • Lessons Learned:
      • We numb vulnerability but you can't just numb the bad, you also numb the good
      • We make the uncertain certain
      • We perfect
      • We pretend that what we do doesn't have an effect on others.
    • Solutions:
      • let ourselves be seen
      • love with our whole heart
      • practice gratitude and joy
      • believe "I am enough"
