Growth Mindset

How does the quest for self esteem affect the learning of people with the Gm.

"Ill never forget the first time I heard myself say, this is hard this is fun. Thats the moment I knew I was changing midsets."(pg 24)

People with the GM incentives themselves with the reward of success in uncomfortable situations.

By putting yourself in a situation that's uncomfortable, by the time that skill is mastered itlll feel comfortable and you can move on to the next challenge

Just because something hard shouldn't make it discouraging,

Even kids can understand the concept of the fact the harder a challenge is the more your skills will improve.

"Children with the growth mindset, on the other hand, couldn't tear themselves away from the puzzles."

The children have confidence in the abilities they've already progressed and use them to improve, in this case their puzzle building skills

Children with the growth mindset wanted to try the harder puzzles and were not afraid to do them. instead of knowing they could complete the easier puzzles the children wanted to expand their knowledge by doing the harder puzzles.

People with the GM are eager to expand their knowledge and will continue to try to grow knowing even if they do fail it will help their growth

This is how people with the GM are able to improve their skills

How do people with the GM Define themselves? Where do they get their self esteem?

People with the GM find pride in achieving goals. They challenge themselves by growing traits that need improvement in order to get to those goals

This means through challenges or goals, with the willingness to fail people with the GM grow from objectives like this

People with the growth mindset are able to find their self esteem through challenging themselves to achieve greater goals, and being able to achieve those goals through their growth.

Instead of being fueled by others opinions they care about their success

Self Def: People with a growth mindset believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence or talent, aren't fixed traits and can be grown through learning and failure.

"I Think intelligence is something you work for...It isn't given to you." (pg.17)

All abilities are gained through growth. Some people may be at further points in that ability but that doesn't mean you can't grow that ability for yourself.

Intelligence isn't something given or a born ability. Its something you need to work to improve just like any other human ability

This shows how people with the gm acknowledge hard work turns into success and nothing is gained without hard work

"Students with the growth mindset continued to show the same high level of interest even when they found the work very challenging." (pg.23)

People with the growth mindset find enjoyment in activities they know will challenge them to fail. Instead of taking easier work they prefer a challenge because they know they'll grow from it be able to move on to harder challenges.

What is the Growth Mindset?

"Why would someone want to do the same [puzzle over and over again."(pg.17)

People with the growth mindset would be confused why someone would want to continuously not challenge themselves, because they don't see the concept off doing something without growing from it.

Doing the same thing over and over again with the same goal in mind will never sharpen your skills

People with the growth mindset believe traits and abilities aren't gifted to us but grown with effort

Def: The belief that ones abilities arent fixed and can change

"People with the growth mindset thrive when they're stretching themselves. When do people with the fixed mindset thrive? When things are safely in their grasp." (pg.22)

People with the FM would rather stay in the comfort of something they know and can succeed in. They will never be able to grow this way.

Knowing failure is a possibility people with the GM are able to thrive when trying to grow themselves.

People with the growth mindset are able to find success in situations that challenge them and make them feel uncomfortable.

Fixed Mindset

How does the quest for self-esteem affect the learning of people with the FM.

People with the fixed mindset instead of gaining a false hope need to have confidence in the level of the ability they've already developed to develop It to their fullest.

With this thought process not understanding where

Not having self worth and confidence can stall your learning.

People with the FM believe their abilities are never good enough to see growth.

"That first test she was convinced, diagnosed her fixed ability and said she was not a true eagle"(pg.26)

she was smart enough for the class she tested into but her the confidence of her worth and abilities made her always feel like she hadn't belonged

This shows her glaring fixed mindset and how she's mentally blocked from growing because of false thought of not being successful

Even though the student tested into the higher classes, she never could grasp the fact she belonged there because she started in the lower class originally

MP People with a fixed mindset are afraid of failure, and will continue to fail at the cost of growing and learning. (Avoiding conflict

Def: confidence in one's own worth or abilities; self-respect.

People avoid things their afraid of so they don't have to face them

This explains the thoughts of someone with the FM and can explain why growth doesn't happen

How do people with the FM define themselves? Where do they get their self esteem from?

M Pxxxxxx : People with the fixed mindset get their self esteem by being good at something or avoiding an ability they need to improve.

in the fm people sometime need to reassure themselves that they have achieved something when they haven't to make themselves feel good.

"Smart people should always succeed." (pg.17)

People with the fixed mindset defeat themselves before trying to grow a skill

The thought smart people should always succeeds is an idea only someone with a fm could only understand. people in the gm fail many times to succeed but learn from their failures, and capitalize.

"People with the fixed mindset said, the ideal mate would put them on a pedestal" (pg.19)

In return, positive reinforcement can be very dangerous , as specially when it can teach someone to be complacent, or not grow their goals

People with the growth mindset would rather have positive reinforcement even through failure just to not feel like they have failed. This stunts growth in a person and makes people numb to failure instead of learning from it.

What is the fixed mindset?

MP: The FM is the belief that ones abilities are fixed and can not change

someone with a fixed mindset believes in people having born abilities

Subtopic

An example of a "natural ability" is intelligence. I

DEFINE INTELLIGENVE

he ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.

IQ tests are supposed to tell someone what their "ability" is compared to other kids.

Iq tests now are used to order people based on their smartness

Its original concept was to find better ways to teach kids material and see where kids are struggling in school

A common thought in the fixed mindset is that smart people are never supposed to fail, and success is the only outcome for a smart person.

SubtoThe thought that smart people are never supposed to fail, and success is the only option is common but very true. People with a fixed mindset don't realize success and intelligence are gained through failure, not complacency.pic

these people have the mindset others are born with an ability that they may not have, therefore they won't be able to achieve that certain ability

People with a fixed mindset believe their abilities are "carved in stone."

This means they believe their abilities are fixed from birth and unchangeable.
