Fixed Mindset and Growth Mindset

Based on current psychological insights and research, mindset is defined as how you perceive intelligence and talents. There are two basic mindsets that you can have, a fixed mindset or a growth mindset.

A fixed mindset considers intelligence as something that is fixed and cannot be changed, but only be used or not used. A fixed mindset has a passive relation to reality and understands the real world as a limitation. Such a mindset provides stability and safety, as long as the environment is mostly stable.

A growth mindset considers talents as starting point that develop according to the use of them. A growth mindset has an active and creative relation to reality and understands the real world as an invitation for change. Such a mindset provides change and development in changing environments.

Mindset for learning

The book 'Mindset' by Carol S. Dweck, Stanford University, describes and has proven how important the mindset is. She elaborated on the crucial differences that occur in education, learning and beyond, in your mindset. Success and how much you learn and grow throughout your life depends largely on the type of mindset you have. You can have a fixed mindset or a growth mindset and something in between. Mindset is not something you can change from day to day, it is a state of mind that is very much you and goes back to the way you were raised and educated. However, you can change your mindset over time. It is important to change your mindset if you do not have the right ??? mindset for learning, growing, and ultimately success.
