The Unlimited Potential Show I Relatable Self Development

17. The Ultimate Edge: Fixed vs, Growth Mindset by Carol Dweck (Part Two)

If you’ve listened to The Unlimited Potential Show you’ve heard us talk about the importance of mindset and how it can make or break where you want to go in life. Today’s episode is the second in a two-part series going in-depth into which mindset is holding you back and what can slingshot you into success. If you haven’t listened to the first part yet, stop this now and check out our previous episode!

In this second episode, we talk about how you can start incorporating the growth mindset into your life, and how it can affect our kids, athletics, business, and even leadership. Listen in as we talk about the conversations we can have without kids to instill a growth mindset and how kindly telling them the truth can actually create more motivation and realistic expectations for the work they have put in.

You’ll learn about a study of Olympic swimmers that found not one of them was considered the best swimmer at their high schools and how being naturally talented doesn’t necessarily dictate how far you go. We talk about the importance of having a growth mindset in leadership and how you can spot a potential employee that has the same mindset within their work ethic. You’ll gain practical steps on how to overcome a fixed mindset and acknowledge the areas where you need growth.

Challenge brings growth, and can open opportunities, doors, and abilities you never knew you had!
