Mindset Matters…Develop a Growth One!
A growth mindset is a popular term over the past few years, but what does it mean? How do people achieve it? Is it possible to switch from a “fixed mindset” to a “growth mindset”?
Yes! The key is understanding the difference between a fixed and a growth mindset.
MINDSET SHIFTS
Fixed mindsets are thoughts, processes, and opinions that are set-in-stone. It is their way or the highway! These individuals have no desire to hear others opinions and they are more interested in speaking than listening. Whereas, a growth mindset is a process in which you have a strong desire to learn from others, hear their perspective and well, continue growing.
There is no limit to what you can experience a growth mindset for and that’s the most wonderful thing!
You may have a passion for gardening, cooking, hosting, running, public speaking, or handling complex data sets. In each and every one of these situations and more, you can cultivate a growth mindset. However, to grow – you must start small.
Seek out tiny habits to help you build upon your personal and professional goals. These actions take no more than 2 minutes and have a lasting impact.
For example, if you seek to grow your professional network – search for an individual on LinkedIn with a title, company experience, or certification you are interested in and send them a quick message asking to connect and learn more about what their journey has been like.
BOOM!
Instant connection and a new opportunity to learn more about something that interests you, plus you have a future person to reach out to as needed.
There are so many opportunities for all of us to keep learning and growing from one another. Do not try to recreate the wheel. Building out these tiny habits will feel like a huge weight off your shoulders when all you did was type out a three-sentence message and hit send in a matter of minutes, yet they have a lasting impact.
