Idk about you, but I like learning about our minds. Because, if we can control our mind, we can control our future. Everything starts with the mind. If ours isn’t operating as well as it could, then we’re probably leaving opportunities on the table. Today we’re reading Mindset by Dr. Carol Dweck.

Core Insights

  • Brains Can Grow
  • Everyone Can Change
  • Learn from Others

Brains Can Grow

Our brains are like a muscle. It gets stronger the more we use it.

New tasks and knowledge help our brains form new connections.

This learning and adapting process makes our brains stronger.

By actively engaging in learning, and facing challenges, we improve our brain's abilities.

Everyone Can Change

No one is stuck in their abilities or personality.

Everyone can change and improve.

The growth mindset teaches that qualities develop with time and effort.

This belief will help us take control of our future and our growth.

By embracing change, we can overcome challenges, learn new skills, and continuously improve.

This mindset creates resilience and helps us grow.

Personal qualities can be cultivated through your efforts. (p. 7)

Learn from Others

Watching and learning from others can help us gain new insights.

Otto Von Bismarck says, “Only a fool learns from his own mistakes. The wise man learns from the mistakes of others.”

The growth mindset encourages seeing others as sources of inspiration and knowledge.

By learning from those around us, we gain new strategies and perspectives.

This openness helps us grow more effectively and reach our goals.

Here’s a few ways we can learn from others:

  • Mentorship
  • Online Content
  • Books
  • Paid Coaching or Consulting

Watch how others do things and learn. (p. 22)
