Openness is the willingness to tell people your story.
Vulnerability is your willingness to let others be part of it.
I’m convinced that the world belongs to the vulnerable.
The people who don’t just share their stories, but actively look for opportunities to engage people in theirs. To welcome people in; to build close relationships; to put your whole heart on the line, at the risk of being judged, disliked, or even hated.
If you were to create a list of people you genuinely admired and respected, I would bet that the common thread isn’t success, clout, money, outgoingness, etc.
It’s vulnerability. We fall in love with people who are super vulnerable - super real.
Who tell stories that bring us closer to one another.
Who give us courage to take risks and be ourselves.
Who live life to the fullest, and move us to do the same.
Who are able to be completely open with themselves.
