Growth Mindset vs Fixed Mindset and Beliefs

Most of us would agree that our beliefs create our results in life, career, and business. Have you ever wondered how our beliefs are translated into results? What is the mechanism and how does it work?

The answer is both simple and complex. Our beliefs determine our attitudes and mindsets, which drive our behavior. In other words, our actions drive our outcomes.

In this video, I introduce a video presented by Carol Dweck and animated by RSA Shorts.

Carol Dweck studies human motivation. She spends dives deep into why some people succeed while others don’t. Her theory of two mindsets and the difference they make in outcomes is simple and profound!

As Dweck describes it: “My work bridges developmental psychology, social psychology, and personality psychology, and examines the self-conceptions (or mindsets) people use to structure the self and guide their behavior. My research looks at the origins of these mindsets, their role in motivation and self-regulation, and their impact on achievement and interpersonal processes.”

I am sure you will love the video!

How Much Salad Should I Eat?

How much salad should we eat per day? It’s more than what you think?

The average person should be consuming 5 to 10 cups per day. You may think that you can skip the salad and go straight to vitamin supplements, smoothies, and shakes. Don’t do it! Nothing can replace the nutrients contained in real food in its natural state.

Concentrated vitamins and minerals (often synthetic) may not be absorbed well and too much of anything can become toxic. Consuming protein shakes can spike your blood glucose levels and increase your toxic load.

Message from White Eagle – Recited by Pierce Brosnan

Words by White Eagle • Recited by Pierce Brosnan

In the face of such uncertainty, it has never been more important for us to think, create, and imagine a better future.

We may be confined to our houses at the moment, but our imaginations are still free to dream, create, and collaborate.

I read this poem, this prayer a few weeks ago by White Eagle, a Hopi indigenous elder —which inspired my friend and documentary filmmaker Thom Zimny to create this short film scored by Ron Aiello.

Free Will

“Losing a belief in free will has not made me a fatalist – in fact, it has increased my feelings of freedom. My hopes, fears, and neuroses seem less personal and indelible. There is no telling how much I might change in the future. Just as one wouldn’t draw a lasting conclusion about oneself on the basis of a brief experience of indigestion, one needn’t do so on a basis of how one has thought or behaved for vast stretches of time in the past.

A creative change of inputs to the system – learning new skills, forming new relationships, adopting new habits of attention – may radically transform one’s life. Becoming sensitive to the background causes of one’s thoughts and feelings can -paradoxically- allow for greater creative control over one’s life. This understanding reveals you to be a biochemical puppet, of course, but it also allows you to grab hold of one of your strings.”
