2. What’s the big deal about a fixed mindset vs. a growth mindset?
More importantly, how’s it impacting your life?! This terminology
has been popularized by Carol Dweck, Ph.D., researcher and
professor at Stanford University, to describe the way people
think about their abilities and talents. A person with a growth
mindset believes they can continually improve, accomplish
goals, and is optimistic about their future. They are more
likely to flourish and have a fulfilling life. Keep reading below to
learn how to develop a strong growth mindset.

is a Big Deal

3. What Happens When You Have a Growth Mindset
Transformation
Charlie’s Transformation
Let me share a story about a friend who had a massive
transformation - seriously massive! I’ve known Charlie (not
his real name) for over 30 years but stayed in touch only
through Facebook. Charlie loved to post about his
challenging life. His posts were either about what was wrong
with the world, how he was struggling, or other negative
thoughts.
Ever since I knew Charlie, his life would go up for a while,
but almost predictably, it came crashing down.
It was like he was constantly torturing himself but had no
idea. I was confident I could help him. His fixed mindset
was uber strong, and we needed to shift him to a growth
mindset.
A week ago, I received a message from Charlie saying he
made $12,000 last month and was on track to make
$20,000 this month. Since we worked together, he’s gone
on vacation (his 1st), has the confidence to bid out jobs
(before he would avoid meeting potential clients), and
focuses on the positive in his life!

4. Alrighty, let's get to work on growing your growth
mindset! To start creating beliefs that empower you and
invite success, remember the 3 A’s System:
All it took was Charlie becoming aware of his belief and
behavior patterns. The next step was having tools and a
clear plan. We also check-in to make sure he’s staying on
course. However, he was the one who chose to shift his
mindset and has remained committed.
What big goals or dreams have you been putting off? Do you
envision having a wildly successful business that affords you
a yearly trip to the Bahamas? It all starts and ends with
your mindset.
2. Set Reasonable Goals
Okay Midori, so how do I get a growth mindset???
3 A's to Create a Stronger Growth Mindset
1. Awareness - Identify Every Limiting Belief
Use the question below to help you discover what you’re saying
to yourself. Think of something you’ve wanted to accomplish,
become, or do for a long time but have not because of excuses
that rise up.

5. Now that you’re aware
of the negative thoughts
you want to change, you
need a plan to make it
happen. I have all my
clients create a 90-Day
Success Blueprint,
where we take these 5
proven actions to rewire
negative thoughts:
I’d love to _________________, but I'm resisting because
______________.
Then ask, 'what's scaring me from taking the action?'
For example: I’d love to become an author, but I don’t have enough
time, experience, or money right now.
Once you’ve filled in the blanks, go back, and examine your reasons
for not achieving your desired accomplishment. Keep asking
yourself what's scaring you and why, until you have vetted out all
your rationalizations. You should have uncovered a few beliefs that
have held you back.
2. Action - A 90-Day Blueprint to Rewire your Mindset

6. You may have crystal clear goals and intentions. However, it
is extremely easy to be thrown off course, lose momentum
due to a setback, or get distracted by a shiny object. Having
a group, mentor or coach is often the determining factor in
your level of success.
They are there to push you through challenges and
ensure you’re sticking to your plan.
Think of a fitness trainer that you hire. How many times
have you put off going to the gym because you’re tired,
unmotivated, or too busy? However, if your trainer is
expecting you, you’re far more likely to go and work out
harder.
Write out your most common negative self-statements
Get crystal clear on the goals you want to accomplish
Outline specific steps to take every day to break the
cycle
Arrange weekly check-ins to keep pace with your goals
After 90-days most negative self-statements will be
gone, and goals will be achieved

3. Accountability - Someone to Have Your Back….
Now imagine you’re working toward your goals in
your 90-Day Blueprint and then life happens.

7. Your taxes are due and require your attention. That
promotion you expected is given to your rival. Your kid
comes home with a weak report card, and you realize he
needs more help. How common is it for confidence to
decrease, excitement to evaporate, and momentum to be
lost?
Having a person you’re accountable to will keep you on
course!
When your negative beliefs are replaced with empowering
ones, success and joy are a natural outcome. Your decisions
become more clear and easier because your mind isn’t
cluttered with self-doubt.
