" It's easy for us to think, Oh man, why can't I do this?
Am I not smart enough?
Am I not intelligent enough?
What's wrong with me?
And because we are in a society where it's fast paced and it's quick, I mean, really, if you want information, you go, you get on the chat whatever and it's right there. You get it.
The problem with that is most of the things that we experience in life require work, persistence, and effort."
-Dr. Skinner
In this episode, we discuss how cultural and societal factors so often condition a fixed mindset over a growth mindset.
We talk about the liberating language of growth and the transformation from celebrating inherent traits or outcomes to celebrating effort--- And how that may just get us further than we even thought possible.
We also emphasize how curiosity and asking questions.. basically being willing to look dumb...will actually pave and create the path we are hoping to find ourselves on.
And perhaps most importantly, Dr. Skinner helps us understand how growth mindsets in relation to relationships can become a game changer.
This one is a goodie. Hope you will join us this week!
You and us,
We got this.
Carly Red & Dr. Skinner
