The biggest thing that helped change my life!  In this weeks episode Olivia talks about:  Her now, new, next  Accepting change and going with the flow of life How mindset affects our daily lives  The difference between a Fixed Mindset and a Growth Mindset  Finding Happiness in small moments  How to adopt new perspectives into our thinking patterns and so much more <3 Where is your mindset? Answer these questions to asses your current mindset.  You're born with a certain amount of intelligence and it isn't something that can be changed. No matter who you are, there isn't much you can do to improve your basic abilities and personality. People are capable of changing who they are. You can learn new things and improve your intelligence. People either have particular talents, or they don't. You can't just acquire talent for things like music, writing, art, or athletics. Studying, working hard, and practicing new skills are all ways to develop new talents and abilities. If you tend to agree most with statements 1, 2, and 5, then you probably have a more fixed mindset. If you agree most with statements 3, and 4, 6, however, then you probably tend to have a growth mindset. https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-a-mindset-2795025 This is the perfect place to find your place.
