There is no courage.
Like if you're doing things in your life, in your work, and there's no risk, no uncertainty, and no exposure, then they're not brave.
If you know how it's going to end,
That is not courage.
Courage is the willingness to show up and be all in when you cannot predict the outcome.
Courage is saying, I love you first.
You want to know what vulnerability is?
I love you first.
Have you ever said, I love you first?
But it's hard.
Well, you've had to go first.
Yeah.
I mean, there's this great story that I tell about...
I gave a talk here.
It was actually in LA.
And afterwards, a kid came up to me.
He's probably 22 or 23.
And he said, can I tell you a story about your work and how it's really changed my life?
And I was like, sure.
And a kind of a crowd grew around.
