Fixed Mindset vs Growth Mindset

We all want an easy life… ️

But life isn’t F#cking easy, and an easy life never benefited anyone. This is Mindset Monday - Let us explain :

There are two basic ways that most people approach life…

… With a fixed mindset: This means you generally believe that your skills and abilities are FIXED, so you’re either good at something or you’re not. This isn’t true, this is simply a perspective. People with this mindset tend to believe that there’s not much you can do to change—who you are is who you are. “Whether you think you CAN or you think you CANNOT either way you will be right.”

… With a growth mindset: This means you typically believe that no matter where you’re starting from, you can improve. Which you most certainly can.

Although the majority of growth mindset approaches work around learning in classroom or work situations, it’s not a huge stretch to see how this can be applied to fitness. “You are not stuck in life, you can move.

If you have a growth mindset around fitness you believe you can get fitter, stronger and even more athletic, no matter where you’re starting from.

Hard work, proper realistic goal setting, and perseverance will get you there.

On the other hand, if you have more of a fixed mindset around fitness, you probably have a general underlying belief that no matter what you do, you won’t improve.

BELIEF FUELS ACTION

ACTION LEADS TO GROWTH

GROWTH REINFORCES THE BELIEF!

No person is either a fixed or a growth mindset person! It is a spectrum! You are not stuck in a box anybody is able to grow ( I don’t mean whack a plant on your bonce )
