We talk a lot about the downsides of social media, but when used with intention, it's a life hack most people are sleeping on. You get to choose who influences your thinking every single day.

I believe that the threshold of how much embarrassment a person can tolerate determines the size of the life they can live. every meaningful act requires the risk of looking foolish: beginning anything, speaking your truth, wanting visibly, attempting what you might fail at publicly. the people who cannot tolerate embarrassment do not get to do these things, or they do them only in secret, where the embarrassment is contained. the people who have made their peace with embarrassment, who have decided it isn’t a verdict but a sensation, get access to a larger version of being alive. the difference between the two lives is enormous and it is almost entirely about embarrassment.
