Saying you always have a Growth Mindset? That’s not how it works.
Your mindset shifts depending on the situation. You might embrace challenges at work—but shut down when it comes to personal goals. Mindsets aren’t one-size-fits-all; they show up differently in different areas of your life.
We love to act like Growth Mindset is an all-or-nothing badge of honor. But the truth is you can believe you can grow in one area—and feel completely stuck in another. That’s not a flaw. That’s being human.
Carol Dweck’s research makes it clear: mindsets are different in different contexts.
So the real question isn’t if you operate under a fixed mindset. It’s “Where does it show up?” And what that’s costing your impact.
