Ch. 3 & 4
I have learned that change is necessary (p. 33 E-book). In order to take the action that transforms our communities, we need to try to understand and deliberately get involved with whatever the problem is (p. 30 E-book). This connects with my own experience because I'm the type of person that always wants to stay closed up in my shell. I find making relationships or connecting with others to be very intimidating which would obviously make it difficult for me to be innovative, take action, or make change. However, I am learning that we need to be open to new perspectives and be resilient because action produces new patterns and strategies and that's important (p. 31-34 E-book).
How can people who suffer from social anxiety become social innovators? Are they wrong to fear taking action?
