Books teach empathy and show you you’re not alone, that your insecurities and passions are shared by millions of people all over the world. No matter how different we may seem, we all have the same emotions. Knowing that others feel the same things is an enormous comfort.

There is a new ad campaign from UnderArmour called “I will what I want”. One features a montage of ABT soloist ballerina Misty Copeland being amazing with a young girl reading a compilation of all the rejection messages she  had received over the years.

That level of resilience is awe inspiring. And I want to know how to get it, and then how to teach it to my children.
