“When you enter a mindset, you enter a new world. In one world—the world of fixed traits—success is about proving you’re smart or talented. Validating yourself. In the other—the world of changing qualities—it’s about stretching yourself to learn something new. Developing yourself.” - Carol Dweck in Mindset. 

In today’s episode, we will be looking at the different ways of approaching our day when we adopt a growth or a fixed mindset. Take pen and paper and create five columns: 

1. Difficult situation
2. Thoughts in response to the situation
3. Is this a fixed or a growth mindset?
4. How could I rephrase this into a growth mindset?
5. What would be the next action in a growth mindset?
