Growth Mindset

(What I often daydream about: Commons Wikimedia)

I had not heard about Carol Dweck before this, however I have heard of ideas similar to growth mindset. I tend to have a growth mindset, but I most certainly have had a fixed mindset. I have a realistic outlook on life and often it can be pessimistic. I often don’t like trying new food or traveling to new places if I know something I like. If I dislike anything new I just wasted my money and time, which I hate. It is often easy to get stuck in a routine that requires minimal effort. What I have learned from OU about my learning is I’m lazy, and that is also my biggest challenge that I have had to overcome. A large amount of effort is required to pass my classes and if effort is not put forth I will fail.
