WHY GROWTH MINDSET PAYS OFF 

We sometimes have a growth mindset in one area of our lives and a fixed mindset in others.⁠

⁠I see that fixed mindset with so many of my clients. They have a growth mindset in their careers, and in their personal lives. But when it comes to their mindset on self care, it is suddenly fixed and they believe they are going to fail.⁠
⁠
If it gets hard, if they make a single mistake, they screw up and eat something off-plan, and they think, "That's it. It's over. I'm going to fail just like every other time."⁠
⁠
Research has shown that people with a fixed mindset are five times more likely to avoid challenges than those with a growth mindset. This correlates with research on high and low performers in all areas of life.⁠
⁠
A growth mindset correlates with high performers and a fixed mindset correlates with low performers. If you are low performing in any specific area of  of  your life, it very well could be because of a fixed mindset.⁠

⁠⁠
⁠At one point or another, we all experience difficult and painful times in this life.⁠
⁠
When we experience pain and suffering, we don’t want to repeat that pain. So we tell ourselves that we can't go through something like that again and, in the process, we attempt to control our situations to prevent it from happening again.⁠
⁠
Unfortunately, we just don't have that power. There is really no benefit to thinking this way.⁠
⁠
When we think we have this power, it creates more emotional pain instead of sparing us that emotional pain (which is what we think we're doing).⁠
⁠
If you find yourself repeating certain thoughts or beliefs to yourself, especially after you've been through a storm, take some time to do a thought download on them: ⁠
⁠
* Question them from a place of curiosity, interest, love, and compassion for yourself and do models on those thoughts. ⁠
⁠*Decide if they really serve you, if you like the results that those thoughts create for you or not. ⁠
⁠
If you're going through a storm right now, that’s all the more reason to question and evaluate the thoughts that keep coming up for you. Because over time, they'll develop into your new beliefs. Remember, beliefs are just thoughts that you've thought so many times that you believe them.⁠
⁠
If you can be intentional and deliberate about deciding which thoughts to believe, then you're going to choose ones that serve you in the future and in moving forward. This will only benefit you in the long run.⁠
⁠
I hope that this is helpful for those of you who are working through some difficult times or find that there are still those little seeds leftover from difficult times past. ❤️⁠
⁠
Working through our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs can help us bring about peace, which is really what we ultimately want. ⁠
