Quote of the Day

One of the biggest surprises in this research was learning that fitting in and belonging are not the same thing.  In fact, fitting in is one of the greatest barriers to belonging.  Fitting in is about assessing a situation and becoming who you need to be in order to be accepted.  Belonging, on the other hand, doesn't require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are.

-- Brene Brown, Daring Greatly, p. 231-232
