On Courage: Favourite Quote By Steve Magness

"Courage comes from being okay, failing, messing up, or being embarrassed.

It comes from aligning your values and beliefs with actions.

It means holding genuine connections and values closely and identities a bit more loosely.

It means ceasing to chase status becasue you realise that external validation is fleeting and that those who genuinely support you will do so, win or lose.

All the while understanding that you will screw up. But what matters most is how you respond.

When you stop acting like you are a middle schooler trying to fit in, you get the freedom to fulfil your potential.

It's your story: own it, update it, sometimes disrupt it, and realise that you get to choose where you go from here.

Choose wisely."
