WHAT IS A MINDSET?
A mindset refers to whether you believe qualities such as 'intelligence' and talent are fixed or changeable traits
THE TWO TYPES OF MINDSETS
Carol
S.Dweck began her research on this topic by tackling a question:What
happens if you give kids a difficult problem?Some children viewed the
problem as a challenge and learning experience.Other children felt that
this problem was impossible to solve and that their intelligence was
being held up for scrutiny and judgement
The kids in the first group had 'growth' mindsets .When faced with something difficult,they believed that they could learn and develop the skills they needed to solve it.The second group of children had 'fixed' mindsets,they believed that there was nothing they could do to tackle a problem that was out of the reach of their knowledge and abilities.
HOW DOES A MINDSET FORM?
Carol
S.Dweck suggests that many people are trained into two types of
mindsets early in life,often through the way they are raised or
experiences in school
FIXED MINDSET :-
1. Children who are taught that they should look smart instead of loving learning, tend to develop a fixed mindset
2.They become more concerned with how they are being judged and fear that they might now live up to the expectations
GROWTH MINDSET :-
1. Kids who are taught to explore,embrace new experiences and enjoy challenges are tend to develop growth mindset.
2.Rather than seeing mistakes as setbacks,they are willing to try new things and make errors all in the name of learning and achieving their potential
HOW DOES MINDSET MATTERS US? :-
Your
mindset plays a critical role on how you cope with life's challenges.In
school,a growth mindset can contribute to greater achievement and
increased effort.When facing a problem such as finding a new job,people
with growth mindsets show greater resilience.They are most likely to
persevere in the face of setbacks while those with fixed mindsets are
more liable to give up.
