There are some steps to a growth mindsetjane GARDNER
The document outlines three steps to develop a growth mindset:
1. Awareness - identify your "fixed mindset voice" by noticing when you doubt yourself or focus on potential failure rather than success.
2. Reframe - learn to control the fixed mindset voice by imagining giving advice to a friend in a supportive way instead of being harshly critical with yourself.
3. Action - take on challenges you've been avoiding and apply the growth mindset by focusing on learning from mistakes rather than seeing failures as defining your abilities.
Thinking our capabilities are determined by past success or failure, leads to a way of thinking that psychologist Carol Dweck classified as a ‘fixed mindset.’ This is where we think ‘I’m not good at languages,’ or ‘I’m no good at technology,’ or ‘I’m not a natural authority figure,’ or ‘that’s just not the way things happen here.’ This kind of thinking is not open to change, but all learning requires being open to change.
In these slides, Denise Metzger will give theoretical and practical ideas on how to help teachers and managers move from a ‘fixed’ to ‘growth’ mindset to actively seek and excel in changing educational contexts, in order to learn new ways to be successful.

It also discusses the importance of clarifying what roles and priorities are most important in order to make good decisions about how to spend time and focus energy on accomplishing what matters most. Finally, it notes that having a clear purpose and taking care of physical health through movement, diet, sleep, relaxation and social connection are important for generating the energy needed to be extraordinarily productive.
This document discusses the use of probing questions when working with individuals to evaluate their knowledge, help them learn, and check for comprehension. Probing questions require the individual to elaborate on earlier responses and indicate that the original response was incomplete.

The document emphasizes letting the individual do the work of thinking for themselves rather than just being shown answers.

What is growth mind set and the difference between fixed and growth mind setMarosarioJaictin1
The document discusses the concept of mindset and differentiates between a growth mindset and fixed mindset. A growth mindset believes that abilities can be developed through effort, while a fixed mindset sees abilities as innate talents. The document provides examples of how individuals with each mindset respond to challenges, effort, goals, and failure. It advocates for teaching students and teachers to cultivate a growth mindset in order to achieve more and continue learning.
A brilliant proverb describing how to build the optimal team "choose your companions before you choose your road".and thats such a true saying,teams are a delicate beast.ideally each member shares a common goal, whether it be winning a race or completing a project.the selflessness and pasion embodied in a groupof people striving for achievement is wondorous.Positive energy emanates from their labors,breeding high standards and astounding productivity.There is no limit to what a great team can accomplish,like a rope:together as one united,consisting of the highest human material:to build that great dynamic individuals willing to work long hours,to motivate them when the inevitable.Human nature can lead to a team s downfall whether from disinterist,laziness,or the dozen of other daily emotions coursing through disparate individuals.Honestly believe the makings of the great team can be found in one word:chemistry.A group of modestly talented individuals who are team players will accomplish far more than an assortment of geniuses thinking of themselves...
A mindset refers to whether you believe qualities such as intelligence and talent are fixed or changeable traits.
People with a fixed mindset believe that these qualities are inborn, fixed, and unchangeable.
Those with a growth mindset, on the other hand, believe that these abilities can be developed and strengthened by way of commitment and hard work.
Building influential relationships takes significant effort as these individuals have worked hard to achieve success. Influential people are selective in who they build relationships with and prefer those who can help their business. To build relationships, thoroughly research potential contacts to confirm their influence and look for ways to provide small assistance to them rather than seeking help. Develop genuine, direct emails highlighting how a person has impacted you and small things that could improve their business. Be persistent by following up regularly if initial replies are delayed or unagreeable in order to eventually build an influential relationship.
The document discusses 10 thought-provoking questions that leaders can ask their people to help bring out the best in them and generate commitment. Some of the questions include "What do you think?", "Why would you like to do it like this?", "Have you looked at alternative ways?", and "What roadblocks/barriers do you foresee by taking this option? How would you overcome them?". The questions are meant to encourage ideas, ensure buy-in, consider different perspectives, set ambitious goals, and overcome challenges.
Learning how to have the mindset for success is crucial when you want a successful and blissful life. If you are like me, you might have many goals you want to achieve. Whatever these goals are, the key is to have a growth mindset rather than a fixed one. But what is the difference and how you get it?
Thinking our capabilities are determined by past success or failure, leads to a way of thinking that psychologist Carol Dweck classified as a ‘fixed mindset.’ This is where we think ‘I’m not good at languages,’ or ‘I’m no good at technology,’ or ‘I’m not a natural authority figure,’ or ‘that’s just not the way things happen here.’ This kind of thinking is not open to change, but all learning requires being open to change.
In this presentation, Denise Metzger will give theoretical and practical ideas on how to help teachers and managers move from a ‘fixed’ to ‘growth’ mindset to actively seek and excel in changing educational contexts, in order to learn new ways to be successful.
The document discusses the differences between smart work and hard work. Smart work involves working efficiently towards meaningful goals, prioritizing important tasks, and being creative. Hard work requires commitment, honesty, and perseverance through challenges. While smart work can help work more efficiently, hard work is still needed to ensure goals are achieved through dedication. The most successful approach combines both smart and hard work to maximize productivity and success.
ImagineNation LAST Generating Creative Conversations Presentation Janet Sernack
A creative conversation transfers ideas from one mind to another, it also allows you to reveal and remove all obstacles in the way of making creative ideas and inventions happen. It even allows you to see opportunities, realise possibilities and easily solves real-life, personal and business problems.
It’s not that we’ve forgotten how to hold genuine conversations. The problem is much deeper. We’ve stopped learning how to hold a genuine conversation.
The good news is we can all learn it. All this ability demands is the ability to be observant, having a core skill-set and following the four key steps in the generative discovery cycle.
Smart work involves planning, prioritizing important tasks, and finding creative solutions to work more efficiently. Hard work means committing time and effort through physical labor. While hard work is important, smart work directs hard work towards meaningful goals. Both hard work and smart work are needed for success - hard work provides persistence while smart work ensures efforts are applied in the right areas. The document argues that combining hard work and smart work allows one to maximize their potential and achieve goals more effectively.

2. Details about the Survey
I surveyed 30+ people and asked them the following two questions –
1. Which compliment would give you more happiness for any work that you do?
a) You have worked so hard for this. Keep it up.
b) You are so intelligent. Good Work.
2. Do you think hard work when focused in the right direction can increase intelligence? Yes/No?
5. Survey Results
We see that majority of the people believe that they would be happier to receive
compliments on their hard work rather than intellect.
The same set of people also believe that hard work, when focused in the right
direction, has chances of increasing intellect.
6. Findings - Feedback should be focused on
Hard Work rather than Intellect
Praising someone for working hard is better than praising someone for their intelligence. It results
in the person putting in more hard work, and reflects in their future endeavors.
Most people think that Hard work, when focused in the right direction, can challenge a person and
increase their intellect. People tend to pick up problems they tend to learn from, even if they won't
look so smart rather than picking up pretty easy work, and they know they will do it well in there.
It also results in people taking up an activity more seriously and whenever required putting in
extra hours to understand it and finish it. They care more about improving themselves rather than
looking at how others have performed.
Such people will not misrepresent or inflate their achievements when compared to people who are
praised for their intelligence. They tend to work harder and develop their skills.
