Jason and Lakisha Williams are not strangers to the idea of growth mindset. From parenting to running a business, these leaders understand the power of this philosophy. Do you practice growth mindset?

Mindsets are your beliefs and they affect your life and your success in business and your life.
Do you let failure or success define your life, or do you view them as opportunities? Do you view your qualities carved in stone and that you will have to prove yourself over and over and over or that the view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life.
Do you view your life as a test or as a journey.

Here are top 6 positive thinking tips that can help you change the way you think about other people and things around. To learn more tips of this type, click the link: http://vkool.com/discover-16-positive-thinking-tips/.
1. Treat Others As You Want To Be Treated
All people wish to be treated with respect. The way that you behave others shows your personality. Therefore, if you want to have good personality, including positive thoughts, you should treat other people the way you want to be treated. If you want to be trusted by friends, learn to trust them first. If you want to be loved by your relatives, learn to love them first. If you want to be welcomed by neighbors, learn to welcome them first.
2. Be Tolerant
In order to build positive thoughts, you should learn to forgive people who make you sad or angry. You even need to learn to forgive the ones who offend you. No matter what they do to you, they are teaching you some good lessons in life.
Moreover, you should be honestly happy when people around you succeed in life or at work. Do not be jealous with them as jealousy is one of the typical causes of negative thinking.
3. Avoid Negative Self-Talk
Among positive thinking tips, avoiding negative self-talk is the most important. What you talk to yourself also will result in the way you behave people around. If your mind is full of negative self-talk, you will not be able to treat others with respect as you may believe that they do not deserve your good behavior. When you are in that situation, try to eliminate your negative talk, and tell yourself that everyone may make mistakes, but everyone has something for you to learn from.
4. Do Meditation Or Yoga
Bath helps clean your body and meditation helps clean and refresh your mind. People who meditate on a regular basis have more positive thoughts than the ones who do not meditate. Meditation will certainly become the future of mankind. If you are a wise person, you should start doing meditation today to enjoy its benefits, to think more positively, and to have a better life.
Yoga helps you stop thinking negatively about others as it is really relaxing when you do it. Doing yoga also helps ease and refresh your mind, building positive thoughts.
5. Help People Around
If you can live for others, your mind will always be clean and relaxed. Helping people around is one of the top positive thinking tips. When you try your best to give others a helping hand, you are building your dignity. What you give others will certainly return to you some ways. If you help others, your mind will be built up with love, respect, and gratitude. As a result, you will be thinking positively.
6. Make Friends With Positive People
When you are with positive people, you can learn from them the way they treat others, and the way they think about life. You will gradually change the way you think as positive as they do.

A PowerPoint on the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. Includes links to videos on famous people who failed in the beginning, and how neurons work and how to make your brain smarter. Target audience is 4th-high school age students.
Most people believe personality traits are fixed characteristics that are present at birth and persist throughout an individual’s lifetime. Recent research, however, indicates these “fixed” traits are simply the symptoms of a person’s belief system. These beliefs can be so strong, in fact, that they positively or negatively influence every aspect of an individual’s life: sports, business, relationships, parenting, teaching, and coaching.
According to Carol S. Dweck, one of the world’s leading researchers in the field of motivation, there are two main belief systems, or mindsets, that people can possess. These mindsets strongly influence the way individuals respond to success and failure, and in Mindset, Dweck uses research, examples of well-known business and sports leaders, and specific scenarios to demonstrate how changing one’s mindset can profoundly affect the outcome of almost every situation. Dweck also explains how understanding the basics of mindsets can help in accepting and understanding relationships and the people who comprise them

A Key Element for Success is a Growth Mindset jane GARDNER
A key element in success in any field is the willingness and desire to learn new things and grow, and the acceptance of change.
This is why a growth mindset is strongly associated with success.
A fixed mindset can be seen in a person who masters something quickly, and then plateaus and fails to improve further.
The person will either succeed with a task at first try or give up in disappointment.
Their inner voice has already told them that they're either good at or not good at the task at hand.
A growth mindset can be seen in one who learns slowly and gradually, accepting new challenges and solving problems along the way.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

2. Growth
Mindset
"In a growth mindset, people believe that their
most basic abilities can be developed through
dedication and hard work—brains and talent
are just the starting point. This view creates a
love of learning and a resilience that is essential
for great accomplishment."
What is
Carol Dweck
3. Busy entrepreneurs balance a lot on
their plates. From family life to
professional obligations, at times, the
workload can feel overwhelming.
Are you hitting all of your goals? Are
you happy? Don’t let the burden of
your life overtake your opportunities
for growth. Adopt a growth mindset
and begin the practice at home, at
work, and during all of your personal
endeavors!

4. This philosophy or mode of living as
the potential to lead you down the
road of success. Here’s how you can
use this mindset in every aspect of
your life!

5. There may be no better trait to model for
your children than this one! Instead of
letting a negative situation turn your mood
sour, take a moment to find the silver-
lining in an unexpected event or
development.
For example, if you’ve planning a fun
weekend at the beach but you’re called
back into work that Saturday, thus
canceling the trip, you may be tempted to
spend the weekend complaining.
Instead of succumbing to this attitude, why
not turn the situation around and plan
local events that you can still squeeze in
after you work. Who knows what fun you
may find on your stay-cation? Chances are,
you’ll make better memories than spending
the weekend sulking indoors!
at home
6. At work, you’ll be asked to utilize growth
mindset on a daily basis. Did a client return
work asking for revisions? Maybe you
received constructive criticism during your
6-month review?
In both scenarios, you have two choices.
You can disregard the comments and chalk
it off to the other person’s inability to
understand you and your work. Or, you
can take the moment to reflect, absorb, and
change.
Keep this in mind: if you never make
mistakes at work, you’ll never get better at
your job. You’ll lose out on golden
opportunities to expand your skill set.
at work
7. Think about the last time you’ve assessed
your life and overarching goals. What
targets have you hit? Which ones remain
slightly (or completely) out of range?
Many people let their dreams slip out of
reach because they feel overwhelmed by
the process of change. They may feel that
it’s too late to go back to school or change
industries. They may find their skill set is
missing key tools.
Instead of letting this moment define your
‘almost’ success, take control of your future
and re-activate that goal. Break down the
process into steps so that the entire goal
feels much for manageable.
for
personal
growth
8. Additionally, make it a habit to continue
learning new skills. Learn a new language.
Take piano lessons. Make reading a daily
habit. Take a course at your local
community college. All of these ideas
stimulate growth and learning in your
brain. Train your brain to love the
discovery of new skills, new tools, new
information. When you feed your brain the
right fuel, amazing things happen.
Your ability to change and grow remains
one of the few constants in this world.
Cling to the power that the growth mindset
grants you. What will you learn today?
