  • different types of mindset:

  • Fixed vs. Growth mindset

  • Open vs. closed mindset

  • Prevention vs. promotion mindset

  • Inward vs. outward

  • Continuum of positive and negative.

  • The more we are towards the positive, the better we interact with our environment.

  • Innate beliefs about our ability to change affect how we interact with the world.

  • With a fixed mindset, we internalize failure as though it means we are a failure.

  • Engage in interventions to promote growth mindset but if the culture doesn’t support it, there’s no point.

  • How Jethro and Ryan each reacted when doing poorly in a class in their freshman year of college.

  • Our mindsets are foundational to everything we do. They shape how we see the world, and how we operate in the world.

  • Assess teacher’s mindset across the school and determine what our collective mindsets are across the school and what does that teach our students.

  • How a school changed their growth mindsets.

  • We take on the mindsets of our collective culture.

  • When people have a fixed mindset they focus on looking good.

  • When we are emphasizing grades and not learning and growing, we are emphasizing a fixed mindset.

  • Fixed vs. Growth mindset

  • 90% of our thinking feeling acting is driven subconsciously. What drives that? Our mindsets.

  • Study about when kids faced difficult questions.

  • When we don’t believe we can improve, and we fail, we feel that we are failures.

  • Growth mindset - when we have that belief that we can change, we see growth as an opportunity to learn.
