What are some techniques you have used, or currently use, to encourage a growth mindset in yourself?
-
I read books and listen to audiobooks often, focusing on areas that I need personal growth. I spend time evaluating how well my procedures and practices are working, and what can make them more effective.
-
I enjoy meditating. Meditating on God’s word, on prayer, or even just stretching and meditating on God’s presence. I use this time to look forward towards goals I have.
-
Starting by stop wasting my time doing unnecessary things and focus on the bigger picture of what I needed to do instead of just working on the most pressing task at hand. Challenge myself to new things and jotting down things to achieve on my calendar i.e. finish reading the Bible in a year, joining a small Bible group on a regular basis, etc. Also, working collaboratively with a friend so we can both grow together and encourage one another when we are feeling unmotivated.

Prayer is number one. Praying, asking God for wisdom, direction and opportunity. There are so many online options for growth. Even during the busiest of times, having a sermon on is always encouraging. Uplifting music calls me to have a Godly mindset and a desire to be closer to Him.

Teachers Pay Teachers is a great resource for growth mindset activities. We use several of their interactive notebooks.
