A growth mindset lets you change your internal monologue, which in turn allows you to replace fixed thoughts with growth thoughts.ĭeveloping a growth mindset does take work, but let me assure you it is worth it. Using a growth mindset in business allows you to see new opportunities where you may not have seen them before. The more you know about yourself – your personality, values, strengths and weaknesses, passion and purpose, the easier it is to develop a growth mindset.
Henry Ford said, “If you think you can do a thing or think you can’t do a thing, you’re right.” Developing a growth mindset is not just saying to yourself repeatedly, “I know I can, I know I can.” Instead, it is a belief in you and your abilities. This outlook creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for accomplishing great things, according to Dweck. In contrast, a growth mindset is one focused on diligence and hard work, understanding that intellect is only a building block for success. There is very little room for personal development or an enthusiasm about learning with such a fixed belief system. They may rest on their laurels, believing that their talent alone creates success or, they may lack confidence believing they do not have the power to create their own favorable outcome. When a person holds the belief that their talents or intelligence are simply given traits, they focus on chronicling them instead of developing them. Dweck in her bestselling book, “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success.” In this month’s Business Bytes, I want to discuss what a growth mindset is, why it is critical to your success, and most importantly how to develop it.īefore I explain what a growth mindset is, I think it is important to put meaning to the opposite – a fixed mindset.
