CHARACTERISTICS OF A GROWTH MINDSET VS. CONSEQUENCES OF A FIXED MINDSET
Individuals who believe their talents can be developed through hard work and dedication. Such as seeking help from others, trying new strategies, learning from mistakes, and moving forward.
CONSEQUENCES OF A FIXED MINDSET
Individuals who believe their talents are inherited gifts. They believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. Believe that talent alone creates success—without effort.
HOW TO MAINTAIN A GROWTH ZONE
Identify and work with triggers. Learning to recognize when your fixed-mindset shows up and what it says to make you feel threatened or defensive. Learn to help your fixed & growth mindset personas to work together with yourself as you pursue challenging goals. This is hard work but you can gain a lot by deepening your understanding of a growth- mindset concept and how to put them into practice. It gives you a richer sense of who you are, what you stand for, and how you want to move forward. The environment created around you can either help or hinder growth, which will affect your ability to self-advocate. Develop a growth mindset while also learning to advocate for yourself. This way you can always obtain the support you need to continue growing throughout your lifetime.
