We have been talking about "fixed mindsets" and "growth mindsets" and how they can either help or interfere with our learning. We talked about how the "fixed mindset" phrases gave us an uncomfortable feeling in our tummies, but the "growth mindset" phrases made us feel a lot stronger. It reminded us of the Credit Karma commercial where two co-workers are making fun of another workers' credit score. Then that worker says, "You know what? Yeah, my credit score is not so great. But it's a lot better than it used to be, and at least I'm actually doing something about it!" Having a "growth mindset" is exactly that. Never settling. Always trying to improve yourself. Not getting frustrated and giving up. Working as hard as you can and giving it 110%. :)
