Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey everyone, Leo Weston here and welcome back to the
Dopamine Reset. Today we're diving into something that's super important,
building a growth mindset. You know that attitude where you
see challenges as opportunities not roadblocks. Ever felt like you
were hitting a ceiling, like your potential was capped. That's

(00:23):
often because we've got a fixed mindset creeping in. We
tell ourselves things like I'm just not good at this
or that's not my thing. But what if I told
you that those beliefs are actually holding you back from
becoming the amazing person you're capable of being. Think about it.

(00:44):
Life is all about learning and growing, right, We're constantly evolving,
changing and adapting, So why wouldn't our mindset evolve with us?
Embracing a growth mindset means understanding that your ability these
aren't fixed. They can be developed and strengthened through effort, persistence,

(01:04):
and a healthy dose of good old fashioned learning from mistakes. Now,
you might be thinking easier said than done, Leo, and
I get it, but trust me, this shift in perspective
is worth every ounce of effort. Let's break down five
key takeaways that will help you build a growth mindset.
And start rocking your life. First off, embrace challenges. A

(01:29):
fixed mindset sees challenges as threats, something to avoid at
all costs, but with a growth mindset, you view them
as exciting opportunities to learn and grow. Think of it
like this, Every obstacle you overcome is a stepping stone
towards becoming a stronger, more resilient version of yourself. Second,

(01:52):
learn from your mistakes. We've all been there. We stumble,
we fall, and sometimes it feels like the whole world
is one. But here's the thing. Mistakes aren't failures. They're
valuable lessons. Instead of beating yourself up, analyze what went wrong,
learn from it, and move on. It's a powerful way

(02:14):
to grow and improve. Third, celebrate the effort. A growth
mindset isn't about always being perfect or getting everything right.
It's about recognizing and appreciating the hard work and dedication
you put in, even if the outcome wasn't exactly what
you hoped for. Remember progress over perfection. Fourth, seek out feedback.

(02:39):
Be open to constructive criticism, even if it stings. A
little feedback is a gift. It helps us see things
from different perspectives and identify areas where we can improve. Remember,
people who are truly committed to growth, welcome feedback with
open arms, and finally, surround yourself with growth growth minded people.

(03:02):
You know that feeling when you're around someone who inspires
you to be your best self. They encourage you, challenge you,
and celebrate your successes. Seek out those individuals. They'll help
you stay motivated and on track as you build your
own growth mindset. Think about a time when you were
learning something new. Maybe it was taking up a new hobby,

(03:24):
starting a new job, or even just trying to master
a recipe. How did you feel when things got challenging.
Did you give up easily or did you push through
and keep learning. If you're like most people, you probably
had moments of both. But with a growth mindset, those
give up moments become opportunities to reflect, adjust your approach,

(03:49):
and come back stronger than ever. Take for example, my
buddy Mark. He's always wanted to learn how to play
the guitar, but he got stuck on a certain chord progression.
Instead of getting discouraged, he watched countless YouTube tutorials, practiced
every day, and even reached out to a local musician

(04:09):
for tips. Guess what after weeks of dedicated effort, he
finally nailed that tricky chord. Now Mark doesn't just play
that one song. He started jamming with other musicians and
writing his own music. He learned from his struggles, kept
pushing himself, and look at him now, living proof that

(04:32):
a growth mindset can lead to amazing things. So what's
the takeaway? It's simple. Embrace challenges, learn from your mistakes,
celebrate your effort, seek feedback, and surround yourself with supportive
people who encourage your growth. Remember you're capable of incredible things.

(04:54):
Don't let a fixed mindset hold you back from reaching
your full potential. Ready to start building that growth mindset,
