Do you have a Fixed Mindset or a Growth Mindset?
MindfulSuite Newsletter #1: Adopting a growth mindset to accelerate your personal improvement
The most life-changing mindset I learned in the past five years is “Growth Mindset.” It’s from the book “Mindset” by Dr. Carol Dweck — a renowned professor of Psychology at Stanford University.
I had read some self-help books before I came across “Growth Mindset” but still struggled with motivation and self-criticism. Deep down, I didn’t quite believe I could change the trajectory of my life. After I practiced thinking with a Growth Mindset, I gained the power to effect changes for the first time in my life.
