    A “growth mindset,” as Dweck calls it, is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: a tendency to believe that you can grow.The consequences of believing that intelligence and personality can be developed rather than being immutably engrained traits, Dweck found in her two decades of research with both children and adults, are remarkable.

    This was a great read for me! I was following one prescribed program, which had a purpose of personal spiritual growth. It offered me so many things I’d never encorporated into my life before, yet I still decided it wasn’t the sole solution for me.

    Since leaving I’ve told some of my friends and the overwhelming response was “when you bottom out again you know where to come”. I was told The guilt I felt was because I’m letting myself down, but I don’t see it that way. Life is so dynamic, and I love how flexible this is.

    The fact that you felt no guilt in the original reading for your son while in 1st grade and sought to improve, which you did a year later….that is how I want to manage my own life life.

     

    Right now im not sure what direction to go, I think there is still a massive void where this program used to be, and like ending a relationship, it’s just going to take time to adjust.

    Jennifer,

    Good luck with your new direction. I think the key is putting yourself around people who truly want what is best for you.
