What are some techniques you have used, or currently use, to encourage a growth mindset in yourself?

Whenever I think of the bible passage that says, ”Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.” Genesis 1:26-27. That makes me to want to study more about what I am learning, for if day by day there are new inventions, and yet man have not yet scratch what God has in store for him. That makes want to learn every day.

I love to learn, even if I don’t agree with or enjoy the topic, I believe we can still learn and grow from it. Topics that challenge us help us to grow and to see where others are coming from. I try to always be learning and I try to pass that onto my students.

I have several colleagues that are also working on their master’s degree. We encourage each other by meeting up to discuss what we have found interesting in what we are learning. This causes us to look forward to what we are studying and seek out more knowledge instead of just pushing through to get the grade.

I view myself as a lifelong learner. I think the joy of loving to learn and viewing challenges as an opportunity for growth is important for maintaining a growth mindset and also for modeling one.
