Fixed Mindset – For the Win
I am a huge fan of Carol Dweck, and you can too. The opposite of a Fixed Mindset is a Growth Mindset – and it’s what, it seems, every company is looking for in their candidate pool. Job Posting after Job Posting will include a Growth Mindset or some variation of it as a requirement. A Growth Mindset is one that is flexible and willing to learn, and it’s what we all should aim for because we are not dead.
Learning: No one is too old to learn. I admire someone willing to learn continually at any career stage.
