Key Takeaways:

1.  Recap: 

  • Fixed Mindset”: Belief that abilities, talents, and traits are fixed or inherent and cannot be significantly changed.  Example: Avoiding challenges for fear of failure.

  • “Growth Mindset”: Belief that abilities, talents, and traits can be developed and improved through effort and learning.  Example: Embracing challenges as opportunities to grow.

2. Live for yourself first. When you begin following the path that you know is right for you, everything else begins to fall into place. It is not without struggle, but the struggle is worth it. 

3. If you don’t feel like you have a growth mindset, remember that you have had a growth mindset before and you can find it again. 

4. 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.

5.  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.

6. 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.
