Key Takeaways:

1. “Fixed Mindset”: Belief that abilities, talents, and traits are fixed or inherent and cannot be significantly changed.

Example: Avoiding challenges for fear of failure.

2. “Growth Mindset”: Belief that abilities, talents, and traits can be developed and improved through effort and learning.

 Example: Embracing challenges as opportunities to grow.

3. **Tips for Cultivating a Growth Mindset**

Self-Awareness

-Identify Your Fixed Mindset Triggers: Recognize the situations that trigger a fixed mindset (e.g., challenges, setbacks, or criticism).

-Reflect: Make it a habit to reflect on your thoughts and feelings regularly, identifying instances where a fixed mindset held you back.

Change Your Language

-Switch Your Language: Instead of saying “I can’t do this” or “I’ll never . . .,” say “I can’t do this yet,” or “I am moving towards . . .

-Embrace Constructive Feedback:  When you or others fail, #failforward by focusing on what can be learned from the experience.

Reframe Challenges and Setbacks

-Stretch Goals:  Set an objective that pushes you out of your comfort zone.

-Reframe Failures: View setbacks as opportunities for growth, not as a validation of an inability or shortcoming.

Embrace Feedback and Prioritize Learning Over Validation

-Constructive Criticism:  Actively seek out feedback that helps you improve or refine your skills.

-Encourage Open Dialogue: Create an environment or cultivate relationships where open and constructive feedback is welcomed and regular.

-Value the Process: Prioritize learning and improving over success or perfection.

-Focus on Yourself: Prioritize yourself, focus on your personal development, and celebrate your achievements.  Avoid seeking approval or validation from others.
