Growth Mindset: Professor Carol Dweck at BTG

Professor Carol Dweck is a leading researcher in the field of motivation and a professor of psychology at Stanford. She has lectured all over the world and hundreds of papers published, as well as some books regarding motivation and mindset. She got her PhD from Yale and researched mindset and motivation for many years.

One of the main topics of the interview is the two following mindsets: 

Fixed and growth mindset.

The attitudes and goals are different. In the fixed mindset, people are more into proving themselves to others, in the growth mindset, people want to learn more, than to waste their time to prove themself. Fixed mindsets find it hard to understand hard work. Setbacks are hard for them, as it means failing. Growth mindset people see them more as an opportunity to learn.

In the Interview is discussed, how the mindset changes when growing up. Babies only want to learn and are in a growth mindset. But different life circumstances divide some people into a fixed mindset. The performance of different students is compared with the different mindsets. In conclusion, they had to say, that students with a growth mindset are generally doing better, as they want to learn and register their inabilities. This is also seen in Brain tests, the functionality and processing differ between the mindsets.

The next question discusses the nature and nurture differences. Here the professor says, that praising might turn out in a fixed mindset, as they only want to be perfect. If mistakes are reached to be a part of progress, it leads to a growth mindset. The next topic is the teaching of a growth mindset in the educational system, where she promotes a class that she created, which is available online and used by schools in the UK. It is criticized, that the usual or old educational system promotes more of a fixed mindset and puts students in different classes, according to their test results. So they feel fixed in their abilities or inabilities, not promoted, that they can grow and help them find their way to grow. The topic is also taken over to the company world, and also there it is found, that there are whole companies, which can be divided into the same categories. Some promote the fixed mindset, others with a growth mindset. A growth mindset should be taught in the training of the companies as she says, the brain is capable of learning for the whole life.

In the end, the interview leads to the topic, that young people have information on a fingertip and how that affects their mindset. The conclusion says, that people have to develop a love of challenges and don't rest with the abilities that the digital age gives us, as this would bring us to a fixed mindset. 

I chose this interview, as I myself sometimes struggle with my mindset and feel fatigued or not driven to get work done or get me up, to pursue a craft I want to learn. For that, I began reading books written by psychologists, and it was an interesting possibility to compare the findings of different people.

Importance of developing a Growth mindset than a fixed mindset.

This topic has different meanings and approaches, the word growth mindset and a fixed mindset discusses how people can grow their mindsets, people can have a different mindset/altitude towards many things together with the goal they set to achieve. This research dives into how students with growth mindset are better than students with fixed mindset. Students with a growth mindset are strong in decision making, they easily adapt and survive in the school environments while students with fixed growth are the ones that turn off/quit school at any slightest difficulties.

People with a growth mindset easily outgrow the ones with a fixed mindset. This topic is also centred on how to teach students with a fixed mindset a better way to develop a growth mindset. Students with a fixed mindset are deemed intelligent as a factor that cannot be changed. Their role in motivation, personality, and development. It is remarkable to say our brains work differently because the students with fixed mindset easily get emotional when you correct them on a mistake while the ones with a growth mindset focuses on the mistakes and are willing to learn from the mistakes.

Nature is enormously powerful in the way that parents or teachers respond to kids in their praise or criticism. When parents praise the child's abilities in every aspect, when parents or other adults tell a child they are clever or talented, it leads to fixed mindset but when you praise her talent or ability the child no longer want to try something difficult, they want to keep looking clever. They will lie about their results to keep feeling that they are clever. When a dad praises a process of children's arduous work their achievements and scores encourage their growth mindsets.

Brainology is beneficial, it teaches the students how their brain can grow new with a stronger connection when they work hard, it takes them through their academics or studies and whatever they are having problems with. It also counters other students; they learn about brain science and how to apply it to their schoolwork.  

In conclusion, growth mindset and fixed mindset both have positive and negative impact on kids and the society. The kids need to develop the love of challenges and the ability to stick with them. Being perfectionistic can be very damaging especially when it is accompanied by a fixed mindset. Teachers using growth mindset principle has taken most students to the top. One of the key points in the point includes importance of growth mindset and its impacts on every day of our lives. How growth mindset contributes immensely to shaping the affairs of our lives in general and the effects of a fixed mindset on children and society at large. More so, in the context of a growth mindset people will learn better and put them into practice better.

The really fun thing about having a brain that’s prone to spacing out is that sometimes you can remember the informational content of the blank spots with no autobiographical recollection to go with it.

Like, I’ll be thinking “where the hell is my hat?”, and the part of my brain that’s responsible for Facts will go “oh, it’s in the freezer chest downstairs”.

Why is it in the freezer chest downstairs?

How do I know this?

I haven’t a clue -- but the information is there!

Happy to share that I am now a certified NLP Practitioner! Learning a new field of communication and knowing the difference that makes the difference is the difference that most people are unaware of. This difference is what makes great leaders, coaches and mentors different from the rest of the world. Each persons different model of the world has different causes and is framed by different experiences in their different timelines. Learning how to value this difference while placing them to what you belief is a difference that only few great leaders know and they make a difference by pacing the situation to a win-win situations. Do you get the difference or shall I make it understand you differently? Gratitude to my mentors @Pavan Bhattad and @Mehernosh Randheria for making the difference in my life. 🙏 #nlp #certifiedpractitioner #difference #mindpower #commnication #mentors #coaches #leadership #greatness #onmyway #gkindshivani #neurolinguisticprogramming #brainology #thinking #rapport #miltonmodel #submodalities #metamodel #beliefofexcellence #learning #learnandimplement #learn #instamotivation #mindprogramming #communicationskills #communicationpatterns #metaphor #timelines #languagepatterns #mindread https://www.instagram.com/p/CgoYXfTpLqU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Guys I’m freaking out I think I just figured out something about Mlandersen0. 

So in Clearing My Head, Patrick makes a joke that Shaun doesn’t understand, right? He goes, ““alright, let me just take my pants off..” to which Shaun responds, “Oh, that’s great...” or something along those lines. And then Patrick complains that Shaun doesn’t get his jokes. Well, I didn’t get it either... until today I thought: “Wait. Was that a fucking Artemis Fowl reference?”

In Atlantis Complex, the seventh book in the series, Artemis develops a fairy disease called the Atlantis Complex:

“Atlantis Complex: (At-lan-tyss kom-pleks) is a psychosis common among guilt-ridden criminals, first diagnosed by Dr E. Dypess of the Atlantis Brainology Clinic. Other symptoms include obsessive behaviour, paranoia, delusions and in extreme cases multiple-personality disorder.” (From the Artemis Foel Fandom Wiki)

Artemis, as part of late-stage Atlantis Complex, develops/fronts an alternate personality who calls himself Orion. Orion is unfortunately not very useful in dealing with the sort of situations Artemis tends to find himself in:

“He has reverted to Orion, a carefree, optimistic alter ego who openly claims his love for Holly and calls Foaly a noble steed (much to the centaur's displeasure). Orion is obviously unaffected by the weight of the situation, and is also completely incapable of scheming, a trait which is unfortunately most vital seeing the group's status.[1]” (Artemis Fowl Fandom Wiki)

Orion, when the group is attempting to brainstorm a plan, suggests this: 

“Orion brightened. "I have an idea." "Yes?" said Foaly, daring to hope that a spark of Artemis remained. "Why don't we look for some magic stones that can grant wishes? Or, if that doesn't work, you could search my naked body for some mysterious birthmark that means I am actually the prince of somewhere or other.””

And during the course of the book, makes a few more references to said birthmark.  So, I’m saying that basically I think Patrick’s joke in Clearing My Head was really a reference to Artemis Fowl’s own alternate personality, Orion, and his attempted “solution”.  Now, one thing I thought of: was Artemis Fowl and the Atlantis Complex even released by that time? 

Well, the first book of the series was released on April 26, 2001. The seventh book, the Atlantis Complex, was released on July 20, 2010. So let’s say that Michael Andersen began reading these books growing up in the hospital - he absolutely could have read Atlantis Complex by the time he was released and the events of Clearing My Head took place.  Now, I have no idea if I’m right about this, or if it was confirmed by a creator that the joke was something else, of I’m missing something else obvious here, but I just thought of all the parallels and thought it might not just be a coincidence. I could be way off. I don’t know.

Journal of the German Institute of Brainological Knitting

[lovelylivelyvane]

This is long overdue, but only because I’m an idiot and left it in drafts instead of actually posting it.

Anyway, here’s the pieces I picked, from left to right

Cancer Baby, 2014

Electromagnetic Brainology (exhibit), 2017

Electromagnetic Brainology (graphics), 2017

Material World Knight, 2018

Delusional Crime and Punishment, 2016

Each of these pieces were picked for their bold statements. Cancer Baby showed know something so deadly could be registered as just a normal, “cute” part of the body before infecting it, Electromagnetic Brainology shows an imaginary religion where people become godlike, Material World Knight shows how much society values the tangible compared to what truly matters most like love and friendship, and Delusional Crime and Punishment creates a personal Hell from pain and science.

Looking at these images in black and white makes me realize that with the colors sucked out, the message has a lesser impact. What makes Lu Yang’s art shine is how colorful she makes them. For Cancer Baby in particular, it makes the piece look cuter and deceiving. And for cases like Delusional Crime and Punishment it’s harder to see what a personal Hell looks like without the colors to bring it to life. It really says a lot how integral color is for Lu Yang’s work, and this isn’t even an assignment for my color theory class! Haha.

Growth Mindset

REASON FOR TOPIC: 

The reason for this topic is to understand the true meaning of growth mindset, how to develop and inculcate it to the younger generation in the society. This Topic discuses on different meanings and approaches to growth mindset and a fixed mindset. It further discusses how Brainology teaches students how to grow their mindsets, people can a different mindset/altitude towards many things together with the goal they set to achieve. This research dives into how students with growth mindset are better than students with fixed mindset. Students with a growth mindset are strong in decision making, they easily adapt and survive in the school environments while students with fixed growth are the ones that turn off/quit school at any slightest difficulties.

People with a growth mindset easily outgrow the ones with a fixed mindset. These topics also centred on how to teach students with a fixed mindset on how to develop a growth mindset. Students with a fixed mindset deem intelligence as a factor that cannot be changed (Dweck, 1999 Dweck, C. S. (1999). Self-theories: Their role in motivation, personality, and development. Philadelphia, PA: Psychology Press, 2006; Mueller & Dweck, 1998) Carol in her interview said is remarkable to say our brains work differently because the students with fixed mindset easily get emotional when you correct them on a mistake while the ones with a growth mindset focuses on the mistakes and are willing to learn from the mistakes.

This research work was done by Carol Dweck, a professor of psychology at Stanford universitas is a researcher and PhD holder in psychology from the university of yale, also studied motivation and success. Carol Dweck is the Lewis and Virginia Eaton Professor of Psychology at Stanford University. Dweck is known for her work on mindset. She was on the faculty at Columbia University, Harvard University, and the University of Illinois before joining the Stanford University faculty in 2004. She is a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science.

The discussion talked about how nature is enormously powerful in the way that parents or teachers respond to kids in their praise or criticism. When parents praise the child's abilities in every aspect, when parents or other adults tell a child they are clever or talented, it leads to fixed mindset but when you praise her talent or ability the child no longer want to try something difficult, they want to keep looking clever.
