My Thoughts on Growth Mindset
The idea of having a growth mindset is one I am familiar with. This was introduced to me in a previous psychology class and has come up in several other classes since. I love learning more about the Growth Mindset because it is something I really agree with.
This is something I always try to keep in mind during the school year. It can be very easy to fall into a fixed mindset. For me, this was especially easy when taking any type of math class. I would always tell myself that I was never any good at math and no one in my family was so there was no way that this time around I would understand it. This is a fixed mindset. Once I switched to a growth mindset, one that tells me that if I work hard and study that with time I will get better, I began to do so much better in the class. This is something I have carried with me throughout the rest of my classes and have done better and better each semester.
