Growth mindset and habit formation are more linked than you may think! In today’s episode, I talk about a quote from Mindset by Carol Dweck and tie it in with lessons from Atomic Habits by James Clear. We talk about goals, identity, why becoming is better than being, and what exactly helps you build a good habit, if that sounds useful, listen! A growth mindset is a concept popularized by psychologist Carol Dweck.
