Chapters

Do you have a growth mindset or a fixed mindset? Either one could be successful. But if you have a fixed mindset, you're much more likely to say, these are my credentials, this is my education, this is my career. I have to stay in the lanes. It's a fixed pie. Someone takes the pie away. That's it. Someone with a growth mindset is always looking at how the pie can be expanded. It's always looking at new opportunities. Right now, in the middle of this pandemic, there are people with your same skills, your same credentials, your same education, and they are flourishing. They're either already doing better than ever before, or they are planting the seeds to really succeed in the coming years. Try to develop a growth mindset.
