Developing a growth mindset takes time and if you have been working on changing from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset, good for you! However, perhaps you are finding some of your old fixed ways of thinking are returning.

You don’t want to slip back into old fixed mindset habits. They will stop you from achieving success!

How a Fixed Mindset Affects Success

People who have a fixed mindset tend to:

· Avoid challenging situations.

· Believe that smart and talented people don’t have to work hard.

· Think that effort is pointless.

· Avoid listening to feedback, or take feedback personally.

· Feel like a failure any time they are less than perfect on a task.

· Blame external factors for their flaws.

How a Growth Mindset Affects Success

On the other hand, a growth mindset encourages:

· Hard work. If it’s possible to get better, then hard work is to be embraced.

· Taking on new challenges. After all, why would you keep doing something over and over, when you can tackle something new and exciting?

· A willingness to ask for help. To someone with a growth mindset, there’s no shame in not knowing something or not being able to do it well — that’s the first stage in getting better.

· The belief that ‘to fail’ is ‘to learn.’

Your new growth mindset needs care and nurturing, so if you find yourself slipping back into fixed mindset habits, remember these vital tips below.

· Firstly, keep trying! A growth mindset teaches that learning and growth are always possible. If you struggle to internalize this idea, just keep holding it as an ideal. The more you strive towards your growth mindset, the more you build it up.

· Embrace challenges. Don’t shy away from difficult problems. Tackling something challenging and mastering it is the best way to build and maintain a growth mindset.

· Try different ways to learn. Not everyone learns in the same way. If you are struggling to master a subject, try different strategies. Most colleges and universities have study skills classes that can teach you different ways to tackle learning. Keep trying until you find what works for you.

· Delete ‘failure’ from your vocabulary. In a fixed mindset, not completing a task perfectly can feel like a failure. It’s not. It just shows that you have more learning to do. When you don’t do as well as you like, you haven’t failed; you just haven’t mastered the task yet. Keep trying, keep learning, and you’ll be a winner.

· Hold realistic expectations. It takes time and energy to learn a subject or improve your skills. If you are getting frustrated because you can’t (do it just yet), make sure you have realistic expectations about how quickly you can improve.

· Love the process, not the outcome. People with a growth mindset develop a love of learning that leads them to ever greater challenges. Along the way, they tend to accumulate successes, but the success wasn’t the point, the challenge was. Embrace this way of thinking. Learn to love the process of learning and keep challenging yourself as you move through life.

The science is clear. It is possible to learn, grow, and change throughout your lifetime. No matter what you think your traits, abilities, and skills are, it’s possible to improve in any area that you chose to focus on. In contrast, believing that your skills are fixed has a way of limiting what you can achieve.

Regardless of who you are or what you do, your mindset affects all areas of your life. If you are open to change, you have a growth mindset. You are ready to grow. If your mindset is fixed, it would be a good idea to make a few changes to improve your life for the better.

A Fixed Mindset

People with a fixed mindset believe that people are born with certain skills, abilities, intelligence, and character, and no amount of work or effort can change these basic traits about that person.

When someone has a fixed mindset, they tend to see the world in black and white. There are winners and losers, smart people and dumb people.

When in the grips of a fixed mindset, people tend to close themselves off to feedback. After all, if you can’t change, what’s the point of listening to criticism? However, feedback is an incredibly useful tool for helping identify where and how to improve.

People with a fixed mindset often:

• Believe effort is a sign of stupidity (because smart/talented people shouldn’t have to try) • Believe that success or failure defines them • Are reluctant to try challenging activities (in case they don’t do well and thus prove themselves to be not smart, talented, or gifted) • Ignore feedback (because they can’t change anyway) • Feel that feedback is a personal criticism • Feel threatened by others’ success

When someone has a fixed mindset, they are eager to demonstrate their good qualities. After all, these qualities are fixed, and they own them, or so they think. Ironically, this need to only demonstrate their skills can lead to rejecting opportunities to improve.

A Growth Mindset

In contrast to those with a fixed mindset, people who have a growth mindset believe that one’s talents, intelligence, skills, abilities, and even character traits, and interpersonal skills can be developed over time. Challenges are embraced, and setbacks are viewed as opportunities for learning and growth.

People with a growth mindset don’t see the world as divided into success and failure, winners and losers; they see setbacks as a sign that more effort and perhaps a different strategy is needed to achieve their goals. Of course, setbacks can still sting a person with a growth mindset, but they don’t see setbacks as failures – just as a sign that they need to work harder or differently.

People with a growth mindset recognize that everyone has a different mix of skills and talents, and they understand that not everyone can become Mozart or Einstein. But they do believe that with time and effort, skills in any area can be improved.

People with a growth mindset tend to:

• Embrace challenges • Enjoy learning • Try various strategies to solve a problem • Ask for help when they need it • Listen to feedback • Believe that effort is essential for gaining mastery • Understand that mistakes are a part of learning • See mistakes and setbacks as learning opportunities • See others’ successes as inspirational

Because people with a growth mindset embrace life-long learning, their achievements over time often eclipse those of people hailed as “natural talents” who don’t put in the ongoing work needed to reach their goals.

Reflect on Your Growth

This is my fourth day on the 10-Day Reset Challenge, and this is my first positive result:

Last night I slept 7 h 30 min with a short break around 1 am. This is the longest I ever remember.

The Booster, combined with the nutritional supplements and 30 minutes’ walk early in the morning, started to kick in. Most importantly, I’ve also noticed my blood pressure went slightly down since Monday.

In short: the right nutrition and sleep are good for your health

Would you care about the 10-Day Reset Challenge?

People with atopic dermatitis have 2.5 to three times the risk of anxiety or depression, with risk increasing in more severe cases. More so because it’s an incurable disease, it’s visible. It’s like branding. The others don’t see you. They see your skin ailment.

Don’t feel depressed and downcast! Don’t let atopic dermatitis stop you, but live a happy and joyous life! You can live with it and, who knows? I might have a solution to treat it.
