Summary

What does Bruce Springsteen have to do with the No Time to Be Timid Manifesto? Everything. I recently caught Bruce live at TD Garden in Boston—from the second to last row—and couldn't stop thinking about how his 50-year career checks off principle after principle from the manifesto. From singing for three hours straight at 76 years old, to speaking truth to power since the 1980s, to calling an entire arena to be their best selves, Bruce Springsteen is a masterclass in creative courage. This one's personal, it's energizing, and it just might make you want to blast Badlands on your next long drive.
