    Season 7 Finale! So now what? What do you do with feedback you get from the people you DO CARE about? The people who are on the arena floor with you. The friends, the coaches, the directors, the spouse(?!!) “I want to be in the arena. I want to be brave with my life. And when we make the choice to dare greatly, we sign up to get our @sses kicked. We can choose courage or we can choose comfort, but we can’t have both. Not at the same time. A lot of cheap seats in the arena are filled with people who never venture onto the floor. They just hurl mean-spirited criticisms and put-downs from a safe distance. The problem is, when we stop caring what people think and stop feeling hurt by cruelty, we lose our ability to connect. But when we’re defined by what people think, we lose the courage to be vulnerable. Therefore, we need to be selective about the feedback we let into our lives. For me, if you’re not in the arena getting your @ss kicked, I’m not interested in your feedback.” -Brene Brown
