Hey Shoremates!

This episode covers the area of sports, and what exactly constitues the mindset of a champion.  In this episode, we cover how exactly a growth and a fixed mindset make a difference at literally every sport. 

Shout out to this podcasts sponsor, Nautical Teas.  Gourmet, delicious, loose leaf teas.  Each tea you see at www.nauticalteas.com has been handcrafted with you in mind.  If you love tea and this podcast, check it out today. 

Action Items:

  1. Do either you or someone you know have a sport you love? From a growth mindset perspective, what would it look like if you started viewing it as a process that you can get better at?
  2. Rethink how you’ve viewed sports stars from a fixed and growth mindset perspective.  What can you learn from both those who are constantly striving for more, practicing, and thinking of themselves as part of a team versus thinking that their skills are fixed and that everyone is there to support them?

Shoremates, once again, I understand that this episode can be a lot, as it can challenge entire belief systems from when you were growing up.  Relisten to it as much as you need to, give yourself grace, and I would highly recommend adding this book to your book shelf to see her studies yourself.

Always, always remember.  You’ve got this.
