    Daring Greatly by Brene Brown (Book Summary)

    Note: This is a summary of Daring Greatly by Brene Brown—not the original book


    Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead

    by Brene Brown


    About | Meeting someone new, a blossoming relationship, an important meeting or a difficult conversation are challenges that create uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure leading to a state of vulnerability. In "Daring Greatly," Brene Brown explores the emotions of vulnerability and imperfection. Brown challenges the common conception of vulnerability and argues that vulnerability is not a weakness but something that can be harnessed to help us achieve peace with ourselves. Brown demonstrates how vulnerability can create a path toward courage, engagement, and meaningful connection. Based on 12 years of research, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is our most accurate measure of courage.


    Here’s what you’ll learn about in this summary:

    • What vulnerability actually is (and what it’s not)
    • How vulnerability is used as a shield.
    • How to use vulnerability as a tool

    Crucial quotes

    "Daring Greatly is not about winning or losing. It's about courage."


    "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. 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 daring greatly" (Theodore Roosevelt)
