What if we stopped thinking of vulnerability as exposing ourselves to endless criticism and started seeing it as the courage to say, "Here, I made this"?
Too often, people confuse vulnerability with defencelessness—like reading Amazon reviews and letting a few harsh words derail their work.
But that's not what it's about.
Vulnerability is creating, sharing, and accepting that not everything is for everyone. It's about learning, growing, and moving forward.
The real question isn't whether you'll succeed—you will. The question is whether you'll matter.
Take a deep breath. Create. Share. And keep going.
Are you ready to make an impact?
