"Don worry about failure. Worry about the chances you miss when you don't even try."
-Sherman Finesilver
After I watched the videos and read the material for this week, I learned about mindset and how it affected our daily lives. Having a growth mindset is important because it can help us overcome obstacles when learning something new or developing a new skill.
With a growth mindset
…If we face a challenge, we can embrace the opportunities instead of avoiding it,
…If there are obstacles in our way, we can be persistent and don’t give up,
…If something requires effort, we can use it to master and don’t see it as fruitless,
…If someone is giving us feedback, we don’t ignore it, and we use it as a way to learn from others,
We can find inspiration from others, and we should not feel threatened by their success.
I am trying to incorporate these principles into my daily life, at work, with my family, and with myself.
