Vulnerability is a source of power, as true power comes from being in a state of extreme vulnerability. Those who are perceived as powerful often put themselves in vulnerable positions by trying new ideas, exposing themselves to the world, and taking risks. This commitment to vulnerability and exploration allows them to take chances that others might avoid, leading to a perception of power even if others see weakness.
