MINDSET

FIXED MINDSET VS GROWTH MINDSET

Many people find difficulties in learning new things. Sometimes motivation doesn't work for them. Even coaching or training fails. This is due to mindset. Money cant buy mindset but mindset can make money.

Let me first ask you, do you have Brain or Mind ? The answer is both. We humans have brain as well as mind. The difference is that brain is visible whereas mind is invisible. The mind is capable of thinking, feeling and imagination. Whereas brain is just a central organ of nervous system.

So now what kind of mindset do you have ?

Is it working daily or works sometimes when required. According to researcher Carol Dweck there are basically two types of mindsets.

1. Fixed mindset

2. Growth mindset

Fixed mindset 

• Now most of the people have this kind of mindset which also changes their attitude. You start believing that qualities are fixed traits and you cannot work upon them. So you basically stop developing your talents. What if we won't do things which we don't like. Would you be imprisoned ? No not at all.

•  But still, if you grow up with this attitude then you start believing that people are born with fixed talents. People with fixed mindsets always fears failure. They don't want to face opportunities. They feel happy with their so called born intelligence.

Growth mindset

• Growth mindset on the other hand is totally different. People with this mentality believe that they can improve their intelligence with practice over time. They always have that learning attitude. They also don't mind putting extra efforts for a better achievement. People with growth mindset don't fear failure. 

• They know that failing is learning. They see problem as opportunity to develop themselves physically and mentally. Here the individual knows that he/she can develop their talents through efforts, practice and good training. They can achieve their ambitious goals much faster.

What is holding you back from developing ? 😲

So which mindset should you develop. It is surely growth mindset. Your mind is really a powerful thing.

Don't restrict its development and growth which would lead to serious problems in the future.

For eg.  if you consider "I am not good in sports" then with fixed mindset you wont even try to practice or play the game. But an individual with growth mindset may start practicing daily and gradually the outcome would also increase.

 Basically people are with fixed mindsets because of their belief systems which is set by the society. So try to change those beliefs resulting changes in mindset.

The difference between the two mindsets in simple words is : fixed mindsets has no room for improvement or development whereas growth mindsets finds it as bunch of opportunities to grow and learn. Growth mindset is really important in developing positive energy.

So how to develop your mindset: 💬

• Never run away from opportunities. Instead make opportunities and grab them. In comfort zone you don't do any sort of activities. Get out of that comfort zone and face the real world!💪

• Change your strategies. Always have a learning attitude.

• Make a time table and prioritize your tasks so that you may give more time for your growth.

• Never think about the end or result. But instead focus on the process so that results automatically becomes good.

• Don't fear failure. Do the task, if you fail you get to know that the process was not meant to be done in the way you did. Change plan. Always remember failure is learning. 😉

• Learn from mistakes of others. Don't do something in a way that already has been done by someone in a wrong method. Learn and improve should be the moto.

• Always keep on setting goals. If you achieve your goal then set a new goal and achieve the new one soon. 

• Never blame someone or criticize others. Learn to take the responsibility on yourself.

• The process takes time. Have patience.

• Take risks. As we know fortune favors the brave.

• Be curious to know more.

• Develop your grit.

Remember that there is no end to learning and success. Keep on trying new things. Always be motivated from inner world rather than outer. If you think people are born intelligent then you are wrong. Development is the new key to success.
