    Developing A Growth Mindset Part 1 - Awareness

    Uploaded by

    Aleksandar Djordjevic
    The document discusses developing a growth mindset through awareness. It explains that everyone has an internal critic ("fixed mindset persona") that tells them negative things. To combat this, one should name their fixed mindset persona to separate it from their true self. Identifying triggers that activate the fixed mindset is also important. Common triggers include taking on challenges, making changes, facing criticism, failure, pressure, and conflicts. Gaining awareness of automatic reactions and self-talk in these situations is a key part of developing a growth mindset.

    Developing a Growth Mindset Part 1: Awareness

    Now that you know what a growth mindset is and why it is such an important belief system, you
    can begin to practice this way of thinking.

    Awareness of Your Self-Talk and Fixed Mindset Triggers

    Everyone has an internal voice, and part of this voice is an inner critic, inner hater, or inner
    doubter—it is the fixed mindset persona. You can hear this persona within the negative self-talk
    that happens in your thoughts and mind. It can sound like:
    • I’m not good enough.
    • I will probably fail.
    • I can’t do this.
    • I don’t want to risk it.
    • I shouldn’t have to try so hard.
    • If I’m not naturally good at this, I should just quit.
    • It’s not my fault.
    • This makes me uncomfortable, I’m not doing it.
    • Why try if it won’t change anything?

    What does yours often sound like?

    Give your fixed mindset persona a name. Naming it helps you remind yourself that this
    mindset—or habit of thinking—is not who you are!
    I will call my fixed mindset persona: ____________________________________________
