Growth Mindset

I have heard about "Growth Mindset" in previous courses and I would have to say, this is a theory that I live by. Having the ability to tell yourself that "currently at this very moment, I struggle. However, I will soon be able to achieve and overcome," is a very powerful tool that not only affects academics but also transfers over to many different areas of our lives. For example, when I first started doing Crossfit, I was not able to complete many of the Olympic weightlifting movements. However, I told myself that I only currently struggle with this movement, I have not achieved this "yet". Therefore, with time, practice, and a lot of sweat I was able to complete these movements.
