People with a fixed mindset believe their abilities are static and essentially “set in stone”. People with a growth mindset believe they can change themselves, their lives, and even the world through persistence and dedication. You are motivated to challenge yourself and test your limits throughout life. There are some guiding steps you can take to acquire this type of mentality:

1. Think about the Person you want to be (build a bridge between “now” you and “future” you)
2. Set goals that are True for yourself (take into account your situation, priorities, and skill level)
3. Look for people that will Support your growth (mentors are here to hold you accountable for your journey)
4. Practice self Compassion (be understanding, kind, and forgiving to the person you love most, yourself!)
5. Don’t shy away from failure (just because something feels scary at first, does not mean you shouldn’t try it)
