People with a fixed mind-set are often the people who excelled at school; have regularly been praised on the outcomes of work and exams; have high expectations put upon them by others and themselves. The fixed mind-set can often lead people to be afraid of making mistakes, avoid taking risks for fear of failure and not always fulfilling their capabilities.
On the contrary People who have a growth mind-set are those who are not concerned about making mistakes; they regularly challenge themselves and can easily persevere even during setbacks. These tend to be people who don’t have an image to uphold, they follow their passions to grow and develop their abilities. They might not have been the smartest kids at school but are often the ones who go on to surprise old school friends by having very progressive successful careers.
When you have a growth mindset you will enjoy having more fun in life. You will enjoy learning. You work on your relationships to make them better. A growth mindset is associated with all of these benefits plus more. This simple attitude impacts your success, health, happiness, careers, and relationships.
You should have a growth-mindset because it is the mindset that sees the success of others as an inspiration and a source for learning, whereas a fixed mindset sees the success of others as a threat.
ARISE AND SHINE!
