Hope is really a thought.

In a highly critical, scarcity-based world, everyone's afraid to fail. As long as we're afraid to fail, we'll never come up with the big, bold ideas we need to solve these problems.

Guilt: I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Shame: I'm sorry. I am a mistake.

It's not about 'what can I accomplish?' but 'what do I want to accomplish?' Paradigm shift.

The willingness to show up changes us, It makes us a little braver each time.

But I don't think it's as dangerous, scary, or terrifying as getting to the end of our lives and wondering, what if I would have shown up?

Cruelty is easy, cheap and rampant.
