Growth Mindset & Fixed Mindset

This is from the advisory class. We have advisory classes since fourth grade. My dad got really excited about our last week learning- Growth mindset vs Fixed mindset. Growth mindset is about people who don' give up. Fixed mindset is about people who give up. The difference can be understood from this easy example. Person 1 with fixed mindset - "I can't do this". Person 2 with growth mindset- "I cant't do this yet " . With this one extra word yet it could make all the difference !! Thomas Edison never gave up trying to make the light bulb glow.
