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 at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while \u003cb\u003edaring greatly.\u003c\/b\u003e\"--\u003c\/i\u003eTheodore Roosevelt \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEvery day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on twelve years of pioneering research, Bren  Brown PhD, LMSW, dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBrown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, \u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity. She writes: \"When we shut ourselves off from vulnerability, we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eDaring Greatly\u003c\/i\u003e is not about winning or losing. It's about courage. In a world where \"never enough\" dominates and feeling afraid has become second nature, vulnerability is subversive. Uncomfortable. It's even a little dangerous at times. And, without question, putting ourselves out there means there's a far greater risk of getting criticized or feeling hurt. But when we step back and examine our lives, we will find that nothing is as uncomfortable, dangerous, and hurtful as standing on the outside of our lives looking in and wondering what it would be like if we had the courage to step into the arena--whether it's a new relationship, an important meeting, the creative process, or a difficult family conversation. \u003ci\u003eDaring Greatly\u003c\/i\u003e is a practice and a powerful new vision for letting ourselves be seen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Avery Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/11\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781592407330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.80w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Books for a Better Life - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Axiom Business Book Awards - Silver Medal Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/23\/2012 pg. 50\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeople Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/03\/2012 pg. 136\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Bren\u0026#233; Brown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36660970324124,"sku":"9781592407330","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_8bfd6fcc-6deb-42b7-966f-587efde48bf0.jpg?v=1603898049","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/daring-greatly-how-the-courage-to-be-vulnerable-transforms-the-way-we-live-love-parent-and-lead-9781592407330","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
