Happy Friday, Limitless Family! I’m going to talk about one of my favorite subjects because it matters so
much. Mindset.
The established set of attitudes held by someone.
Now, that is the definition from the dictionary, but let’s break this down. We have two different types of
mindsets that you see in people. A fixed mindset. You believe your abilities are fixed and they cannot be
changed. Then you have a growth mindset. You believe your talents and abilities can develop over the
time through effort and persistence.
Most people in the world have a fixed mindset, believing that the skillsets they’ve learned are set for life
and nothing will change. You need to have a growth mindset if you want to do more in this world.
Let me give you some examples of a fixed mindset. “Either I’m good at it or I’m not. That’s just who I am.
I can’t change it. If you have to work hard, you don’t have the ability. If I don’t try, then I won’t fail. That
job position, totally out of my league.”
Now let me give you some examples of a growth mindset. “I can learn to do anything I want. I’m
constantly evolving in work and progress. The more you challenge yourself, the smarter you become. I
only fail when I stop trying. That job position looks challenging. Let me apply for it.”
So how to do we fix this mindset? Focus on the journey. Incorporate a yet in your terminology. Pay
attention to your words and your thoughts. Take on challenges and embrace them. When I first started
my journey, I had a fixed mindset that I could only do a certain amount of things. I can only make a
certain amount of money. I can only help a certain amount of people.
But, when you change that to a growth mindset, the doors and the opportunities that open to you are
endless!
