I have never heard of the growth mindset or Carol Dweck prior to this class assignment. However, I am familiar with this concept in a very broad sense. I loved the video 'Make Challenge the New Comfort Zone' and found it very inspirational. It is so true that so often people just want everything to come easy to them, and when it does not they get discouraged. Instead, people should be comfortable with being challenged. There have been times in college where when I was challenged, I assumed I was not cut out for the class. Instead, I should have accepted the challenge and continued forward in my studies. I am incredibly interested in learning more about growth mindset this semester. Learning to think differently is something I enjoy studying and sharing with other people. Especially as through this way, it is so beneficial for people's overall well being. I think learning about this will not only help me in my school work, but also when I enter the 'real world' next semester.
