What is a growth mindset and how to develop it? Dr. Carol Dweck, a Stanford University psychologist, established the terms growth mindset vs fixed mindset. While most people tend to lean toward one mindset or the other, it’s possible to have a mix of both. You can have a growth mindset for intelligence, and a fixed mindset for your personality, or vice versa. And in different situations, your mindset can change.
The good news is that mindsets are just beliefs, and you can change your mind at any time – even if you are an adult.
In order to develop a growth mindset, you have to be willing and committed to changing your beliefs about what you are able to do. You can interpret challenges, setbacks, and criticism in a fixed mindset – as signs that your talents or abilities are lacking. Or, you can interpret them in a growth mindset – as signs that you need to ramp up your strategies and effort, stretch yourself, and expand your abilities.
