We reach emotional agility through a series of tiny steps in everyday moments over the course of a lifetime.

Here's a thread about how you can start this journey today.

2/ Appoint yourself the agent of your own life and take ownership of your own development, career, creative spirit, work, and connections.

3/ Accept your full-self with compassion, courage, and curiosity.

4/ Welcome your inner experiences, breathe into them, and learn their contours without racing for the exit.

5/ Embrace an evolving identity and release the narratives that no longer serve you.

6/ Let go of unrealistic goals by accepting that being alive means sometimes getting hurt, failing, being stressed, and making mistakes.

7/ Free yourself from pursuing perfection so you can enjoy the process of living and loving.

8/ Open yourself up to the love that will come with hurt adn the hurt that will come with love, and to the success that will come with failure and the failure that will come with success.

9/ Abandon the idea of being fearless, and instead walk directly into your fears, with your values as your guide, toward what matters to you.

Courage is not an absence of fear; courage is fearing walking.

10/ Choose courage over comfort by vitally engaging with new opportunities to learn and grow, rather than passively resigning yourself to your circumstances.

11/ Recognize that life's beauty is inseparable from its fragility. We're young until we're not. We're healthy until we're not. We're with those we love until we're not.

12/ Learn how to hear the heartbeat of your own why.

13/ And finally, remember to dance if you can.
