Growth mindset

Hey babe! Welcome to the Growth section of the blog!

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, your life is determined mostly by your mindset. I know, I know, you’ve heard me say it a million times before, but I’m going to keep repeating those words until the people in the back hear me.

Listen, most unaware people live with a fixed mindset. Those inward focused, grounded types tend to live with a growth mindset.

The fixed mindset people generally stick to their way of thinking and refuse to have their thoughts challenged. They are rigid and put an absorbent amount of emphasis on first impressions. How they view a person, a situation, or an emotion tends to stick and be set in stone. They also love to mantras like: I’m not good enough, bad things always happen to me, there’s no point in trying… You get it; their mindset is a significant issue.

Now, to the growth-minded people, which are my favorite kind of people! Growth focused individuals operate with the belief that their abilities, intelligence, surroundings, circumstances, emotions, physical, mental, and spiritual beliefs can and will change. They know that they can make anything happen. Those with a growth mindset believe today’s abilities are only the starting point for their genuine potential, and they do not seek approval to live their best lives. They love mantras such as “I can always become better,” “Failure is an opportunity,” and “I love my life.”

With determination, mindfulness, and a genuine growth mindset, anyone can experience the benefits of expanding their lives.

 The articles in this section are meant to teach you how to let go of what is no longer working (the fixed mindset) and move you into an appreciation and growth attitude.

 Look for new blog posts weekly ranging from mindfulness, self-help, meditation, growth, and everything else in-between. They don’t call me the “Get Your Life Together Girl” for nothing. Right?
