“When we work from a place, that says, 'I’m enough,' we then stop screaming and start listening. We’re kinder and gentler to the people around us, and we’re kinder and gentler to ourselves”
— Brene Brown

Simplified Meaning:
When people believe they are good enough as they are, they stop trying so hard to prove themselves. This means they become better at listening to others instead of always needing to talk or show off. They act more kindly and gently towards others because they don't feel stressed about needing to measure up. For example, imagine a student who feels confident in their own abilities; they will be more likely to help classmates rather than compete with them. This self-assurance not only helps them to have better relationships with others but also makes them more patient and forgiving towards themselves when they make mistakes. Embracing this mindset can lead to a more peaceful and compassionate life.
