Thursday Thoughts - Beginner's Mindset

On this week's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about cultivating a beginner’s mindset, as well as the difference between fixed and growth mindsets.In our conversation, we talk about how people often avoid trying new things because they're worried about not being good immediately, when the truth is that we all start knowing nothing — and we learn through effort and failure. I talks about my experience as a teacher and how I encouraged my students to resist comparison, recognise their different strengths, and understand that skills can be developed with practice. We also talk about the fact that talent only goes so far without persistence and self-belief, and that successful, interesting people keep learning by asking questions, embracing vulnerability, and being willing to look 'stupid'. We hope you'll find something interesting or helpful in here.Love,Polly & Lucy xDownload 15 Breaths to Calm Anxiety - a FREE 5 minute audio to calm you down in real time.Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.Download my energising 5 Minute Morning Practice to get your day started in the best way possible.To find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to:  https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at:  [email protected]://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/
