The Growth Mindset

The Growth Mindset is based on the belief in positive change. Whether we are aware of it or not, everyone keeps a running account of what is happening to them, what it means, and what they should do. In other words, our minds are constantly monitoring and interpreting. That’s how we stay on track.

Remember, the foundation of maintaining a growth mindset is founded on possessing a concept referred to as pragmatic optimism, which is recognizing the situation you find yourself in, being honest with yourself about what is going on, accepting it, and then taking the most proactive, positive steps, you can take to move forward, in a goal-directed fashion.

The essence of optimism is all about the belief that good things can happen and will continue to happen. However, to take a meaningful step you have to be clear on what is really going on.
