Cultivating a Growth Mindset (pt 1) 3 Key Beliefs and the Do’s and Don’ts of Parenting | Archived Episode

“We all have the power to choose how we will see a situation.” - Virginia Elder We long for our children to have the missing piece of our own life puzzle. Whatever it was that we were missing from our own lives - maybe a talent, an opportunity, or an understanding - we hope they get blessed with what we didn’t. Cultivating and nurturing a growth mindset in your child takes consistent actions and conversations with them over time. There are 3 key beliefs one must have to see positivity and a shortlist of Do’s and Don’ts for parents when it comes to discipline and intense situations.  In this episode, I share about the detrimental self-beliefs I’m discovering in my son, the research I’ve done toward battling that negativity, and what we’ve been working on as a family to improve his self-esteem, instill positive beliefs about himself, and explore how we can parent toward supporting a positive outlook.  Remember that you, and not anyone else, hold the key to your own development and the choices you make as you guide your children through similar processes. Consider how you’ll respond, how you’ll feel, and how long you’ll allow yourself to dwell on an issue.
