A Secret About Growth Mindset That May Be Setting You Back
What Happens When Beliefs Are Held Without Questioning Them
If you are reading this, it is likely you have a Growth Mindset.
These articles tend to challenge conventional beliefs, and dive into deep topics so that we can continue to grow to new heights.
However, there is something very interesting about having a “Growth Mindset” that can set you back.
The reality is, none of us have “One” Mindset.
What do I mean?
Let’s take the belief that I have a “Growth Mindset”.
Usually this means that we believe we can grow in our work, or with our passions.
However, this is just one small section of Mindsets that we have.
We actually have multiple sets of Mindsets, at least one for every aspect of our lives.
Within each aspect, it is true that we could have a Growth or a Fixed Mindset.
That means you can have both “Growth Mindsets” AND “Fixed Mindsets” in different aspects of your life at the same time!
To ask, “Do you have a Growth Mindset?” is the wrong question.
