Growth Mindset

Growth Mindset vs Fixed Mindset

In research it has been found that most of the children have Growth Mind Set while this quality is preserved only in few people till they become Adults. And the one who change the world are people who have growth mind set.

Now, what is Growth Mindset and Fixed Mindset ? 

 In one experiment children are categorized and grouped according to their ages. Children of 4 - 6 years ages, 7 - 10 years ages and 11 - 13 years ages. At first, simple puzzle is assigned to them and everyone is doing it happily and interestingly.  After finishing it,  complex puzzle is assigned to them. But, while doing it most of the children of 11 - 13 years age get yellowish face and they get nervous . In opposite to it children of 4 - 6 years group are enjoying it and trying to learn from it.

  From this experiment, it has been found that children of small ages don't take any mistake as their failure. They think they are learning from it and they try to improve themselves each time. But when they grow they make their mind rigid, fixed mindset. They start to think it in rigid way.  Mistake in any task is taken by most of the adults as their failure. They think that is their limitation. So they create their imaginary boundary within themselves. Boundary of what they can do and can't do.  like If any person is good singer most of the adult think that the person has good quality to sing the song but I don't have that quality and which will creates imaginary boundary within himself.  While person with Growth Mindset thinks, I can also be one good singer. If he makes, any mistake while he is trying, he thinks I am improving myself and  one day I will become good Singer. This is difference between Growth Mindset and Fixed Mindset.

" What we think about others or what others think about us doesn't change our life but what we think about ourselves changes our life ". So let's start to think positive and let's keep trying to do what we want making our Mind Flexible, ya that's called "Growth Mindset".
