GROWTH MINDSET

SPOTLIGHT

Whether it’s a human interest article, an inspiring movie, or a compelling biography, I’m always drawn to stories where the Growth Mindset shows up.  It’s powerful to recognize not just when someone uses their Growth Mindset, but how. They might embrace challenges, learn from failure or push past limitations. I also find it inspiring when people confront their own fixed mindset and shift toward growth to overcome obstacles and setbacks. Each month I will post a story that highlights a Growth Mindset in action.
