[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was also going to post about Carol Dweck. Go read her book, Mindset. What you're describing is very characteristic of a Fixed mindset versus a Growth mindset (and 90% of the replies in this thread are more examples of a Fixed mindset).[/quote] Op. Yes!!! My one caveat with this book is it said some mindsets are innate. I innately have a growth mindset. Just is My kids and honestly my husband says this book is stupid and im justifying them to be like me. So the book reinforced everything i believe and it just made them feel like it was some foreign concept that is for other people if they want I give examples of all the things i didnt do Well but then i kept trying. They just say its pointless because why do they want to do the things i do or other things. I say for personal enjoyment, satisfaction ? Response. Its fun watching tv. [/quote]
