In the past, I’ve had multiple times where I had a fixed mindset, especially when people praised me in school work or out-of-school activities. However, I still strived to challenge myself with harder work and activities during half of that praise, sub-consciously wanting to impress those around me even more.
To expand my growth mindset, I could always record the activities that I do, whether it’s academic or not, and see how I can improve myself further in that specific area. This would help me in areas that I am not interested in or am struggling in.
