Today I will make up my mind to succeed in whatever I do. Will power is a tremendous factor in all activities. It can start endless motions of cosmic energy. O Eternal Energy, awaken in me conscious will, conscious vitality, conscious health, conscious realization. Teach me, O Spirt, to cooperate with Thy will until all my thoughts shall conform to Thy Harmonious plans. There is hidden strength within me to overcome all obstacles and temptations. I will bring forth that indomitable power and energy. Invincible Lord, teach me to use my will unceasingly in the performance of good actions, until the little light of my will burns as the cosmic blaze of Thine all-powerful will. Beloved Father, I know that by strong will power I can overcome disease, failure, and ignorance, but the will vibration must be stronger than the vibration of physical or mental disease. The more chronic the disease, the stronger, steadier, and more unflinching must be my determination, faith and effort of will. Today I will cultivate initiative. The man of initiative creates something from nothing; he makes the impossible possible by the great inventive power of spirit. Heavenly Father, help me to strengthen my will power. Teach me not to be enslaved by habits. Guide me, that I may develop myself spiritually by inner and outer discipline. I will tune my free will with the infinite will of God, and my only desire shall be to do the will of Him who placed me here.
গাজীপুরে বন্ধ হওয়া একটি পোশাক কারখানার এক মাসের বকেয়া বেতন ও সার্ভিস বেনিফিটের চাকরি ছাড়ার পর আনুষঙ্গিক আর্থিক সুবিধা টাকা না পেয়ে কারখানার উপব্যবস্থাপনা পরিচালককে ডিএমডি পেটানোর অভিযোগ পাওয়া গেছে। গতকাল বৃহস্পতিবার বিকেলে গাজীপুরের কালিয়াকৈর উপজেলার চন্দ্রা এলাকায় এ ঘটনা ঘটে। শ্রমিকদের মারধরে আহত রাফি মাহমুদ কালিয়াকৈর উপজেলার মাহমুদ জিনস ও মাহমুদ ডেনিম লিমিটেডের উপব্যবস্থাপনা পরিচলক। তাঁর ওপর হামলার ঘটনায় আজ শুক্রবার সংবাদ বিজ্ঞপ্তি দিয়ে উদ্বেগ ও নিন্দা জানিয়েছে তৈরি পোশাকশিল্পের মালিকদের সংগঠন বিজিএমইএ।
চট্টগ্রাম প্রকৌশল ও প্রযুক্তি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে (চুয়েট) সাম্প্রতিক র্যাগিংয়ের ঘটনা এবং দেশের অন্যান্য শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানে প্রায় নিয়মিত ঘটে যাওয়া এমন কর্মকাণ্ড বড় উদ্বেগের কারণ হয়ে দাঁড়িয়েছে। কারণ, শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানে যখন র্যাগিংয়ের মতো ঘৃণ্য সংস্কৃতি বিরাজ করে, তখন শিক্ষার প্রকৃত উদ্দেশ্য ব্যাহত হয়।
চলতি মাসে চুয়েটের ২৩তম ব্যাচের কয়েকজন শিক্ষার্থীকে প্রধান ফটকের বাইরে ইমাম গাজ্জালী কলেজের সামনে নিয়ে হেনস্তা করার ঘটনা ঘটেছে। এ ঘটনায় ১১ শিক্ষার্থীকে কারণ দর্শানোর নোটিশ দেওয়া হয়েছে।
র্যাগিং নিছক আনন্দ বা পরিহাস নয়। এটি মূলত শারীরিক ও মানসিক নির্যাতনের এমন এক ঘৃণ্য রূপ, যা ভুক্তভোগীদের আত্মবিশ্বাস ও ব্যক্তিত্ব বিকাশকে চরমভাবে বাধাগ্রস্ত করে। বরিশালের শের-ই-বাংলা মেডিকেল কলেজ কিংবা ইসলামী বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের মতো শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানে র্যাগিংয়ের নামে শিক্ষার্থীদের ওপর নির্যাতনের ঘটনা প্রায়ই সংবাদ শিরোনাম হচ্ছে। কখনো তা শারীরিক নিপীড়ন, কখনো মানসিকভাবে হয়রানি কিংবা ভয়ভীতি প্রদর্শনের মধ্যে সীমাবদ্ধ থাকছে না; বরং কিছু ক্ষেত্রে এর মাশুল দিতে হয়েছে জীবন দিয়ে। বুয়েটের আবরার ফাহাদ হত্যাকাণ্ড এই বাস্তবতারই করুণ চিত্র।
শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানগুলোয় এমন সংস্কৃতির পেছনে মূলত প্রশাসনিক ব্যর্থতা এবং রাজনৈতিক প্রভাব কাজ করে। অধিকাংশ ক্ষেত্রে দেখা যায়, র্যাগিংয়ে জড়িত শিক্ষার্থীরা ক্ষমতাসীন দলের সমর্থনপুষ্ট। ক্ষমতার জোরে তাঁরা কোনো শাস্তি ছাড়াই পার পেয়ে যান। ২০২০ সালে উচ্চ আদালত র্যাগিং প্রতিরোধে প্রতিটি শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানে কমিটি গঠনের নির্দেশ দিয়েছিলেন। কিন্তু বেশির ভাগ প্রতিষ্ঠানই এই নির্দেশ কার্যকর করেনি। প্রচলিত আইনেও র্যাগিং নিয়ে সুনির্দিষ্ট কোনো বিধান নেই। এটি অপরাধীদের আরও উৎসাহিত করে।
এই সামাজিক ব্যাধি থেকে মুক্তি পেতে হলে আমাদের জাতীয় পর্যায়ে পদক্ষেপ নিতে হবে। র্যাগিং বন্ধে কঠোর আইন প্রণয়ন এখন সময়ের দাবি। পাশাপাশি প্রতিটি শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানে র্যাগিং প্রতিরোধে কার্যকর কমিটি গঠন ও এর নিয়মিত মনিটরিং নিশ্চিত করা জরুরি। অপরাধীদের প্রতি শূন্য সহনশীলতা নীতি গ্রহণ করা ছাড়া এই সমস্যার সমাধান অসম্ভব। একই সঙ্গে শিক্ষার্থীদের মধ্যে সচেতনতা বৃদ্ধি করতে হবে। র্যাগিংয়ের নেতিবাচক প্রভাব সম্পর্কে জানাতে নিয়মিত কর্মশালা এবং সেমিনারের আয়োজন প্রয়োজন।
শিক্ষার পরিবেশকে সুরক্ষিত করতে হলে প্রশাসন, শিক্ষক, অভিভাবক এবং শিক্ষার্থীদের একযোগে কাজ করতে হবে। শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানে র্যাগিং বন্ধ করা শুধু আইনশৃঙ্খলা রক্ষাকারী বাহিনীর দায়িত্ব নয়; এটি সবার সামাজিক দায়িত্বও। এ বিষয়ে অবিলম্বে কার্যকর পদক্ষেপ নেওয়া না হলে শিক্ষাপ্রতিষ্ঠানগুলো কেবল ভয়ের জায়গা হয়ে উঠবে, যা জাতির অগ্রগতির জন্য চরম ক্ষতিকর।

As well as spending less and not buying unnecessary items, Buy Nothing Day aims to raise awareness of how to be a more ethical consumer. For example, you can avoid buying ‘fast fashion’, that is, very cheap clothes that are worn a few times before being thrown away. Or you could decide not to automatically upgrade your mobile at the end of a contract. These kinds of decisions can help to protect the environment as well as saving you money.
Instead of taking the opportunity to buy as much as possible on Black Friday, you could do the opposite and buy absolutely nothing. Since 1997, Buy Nothing Day has been held on the same day as Black Friday. The rules are simple. Just don’t buy anything at all for 24 hours. Many people are surprised how difficult this actually is. The aim is to make people think more about their spending and to make better decisions about what they buy and where they buy it from.
Many of us love to get a bargain, but some feel that events like Black Friday encourage people to buy things that they don’t really need and can’t afford. Many people seem to completely lose control of both their spending and their tempers. It is easy to find video online of customers physically fighting each other over bargains. It is also argued that Black Friday is bad for small shopkeepers, who cannot afford to offer the kinds of price cuts that the big companies can.
Black Friday is the day after the American holiday of Thanksgiving, which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. Because it is a holiday in the United States, it has long been a popular day for consumers to start shopping for Christmas. Over the last 20 years big retailers have started to offer discounts and bargains on this day, and it has become more and more popular. Last year, people in the USA spent an estimated $54.7 billion between Black Friday and Cyber Monday (the Monday after Thanksgiving, when people often buy more online). The idea of Black Friday has also spread around the world. For example, in 2017, people in the UK spent the equivalent of $10.3 billion, in Germany $7.6 billion and in France $6.2 billion.
Every item we buy has a back story. From electronics to textiles, from handmade carpets to coffee, tea and chocolate, each of these products might include child or adult slavery. Consider a product as innocent as chocolate. While the chocolate bar itself may have been produced in your country, the cocoa in the chocolate probably came from West Africa, where 60 per cent of the world's cocoa is produced. As you read this, thousands of children and adults live in slave-like conditions on cocoa farms. Unknowingly, your purchase might support slavery. However, consumer demand for ethically-sourced products and services can send a powerful message to producers. Imagine if we all refused to purchase goods that have a back story of slavery. Company sales, and therefore profits, would fall. Look around at items in your home and workplace and ask yourself the simple question, 'Where did this come from and who made it?'
Another form of slavery is domestic servitude. Across the globe, domestic workers, mostly women, migrate abroad to support their families back home. Employment agents in their country of origin promise a generous salary and good working conditions with a caring host family. This, however, may be far from reality. Domestic workers are sometimes forced to work long hours and their passports and mobile phones are taken away. In extreme cases, behind closed doors of private homes, they are locked up, starved, deprived of sleep and often physically and sexually abused. They are trapped, scared and unfamiliar with their new surroundings. Domestic servitude happens globally, including in the UK.
According to the Global Slavery Index 2018, over 40 million people are victims of modern slavery, and of these, 15 million are in forced marriage. Slavery involves violence, physical or psychological, and control – often in the form of threats in order to generate profit. To quote Kevin Bales, 'Slavery is when one person controls another, uses violence to maintain that control and exploits them economically.' This violence may be physical and/or psychological, and the control may be verbal threats – but at the heart of slavery is exploitation and 'ownership' of another human being for profit. Forms of modern slavery include forced labour, human trafficking, commercial sexual exploitation, domestic servitude and forced marriage. You might be surprised to see forced marriage included above. Sadly, forced marriage involves the same lack of choice, power imbalance, coercion and labour exploitation as other forms of slavery. This also includes forced child marriage – usually of girls, of 17 years or younger.
David Crisp is a British businessman. He sells expensive perfume in Russia. He does it even after Russia attacks Ukraine in 2022. Crisps speaks about his business in a secret video.
This business breaks UK rules. The UK must not do business with Russia. Selling these goods to Russia is a crime. But a British government agency stops investigating Crisp’s business. They find over 1.7 million pounds in illegal business. Crisp says that he does not want to break the rules.
Some people say that the UK is not doing enough. There is illegal business. It is good for Russia. Other Western companies are also breaking the rules and they are doing business with Russia.
Fixed mindset limits growth potential
In a fixed mindset, individuals believe that their abilities and intelligence are static traits that cannot be changed. They see their talents as innate gifts that they either possess or lack. This belief leads them to avoid challenges, give up easily in the face of obstacles, and ignore constructive feedback. As a result, they limit their growth potential and fail to reach their full capabilities.
When people with a fixed mindset encounter setbacks or failures, they tend to interpret them as a reflection of their inherent abilities. They see themselves as either smart or not smart, talented or untalented. This binary thinking prevents them from seeing the value of effort and perseverance in achieving success. They become overly concerned with proving their worth and avoiding failure at all costs.
Individuals with a fixed mindset often compare themselves to others and feel threatened by those who outperform them. They view the success of others as a sign of their own inadequacy and become envious or resentful. This mindset creates a competitive and judgmental outlook that hinders collaboration and growth. It fosters a fear of failure and a reluctance to take risks.
In contrast, a growth mindset is characterized by the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and hard work. People with a growth mindset see challenges as opportunities to learn and grow. They embrace setbacks as valuable lessons that can help them improve. They seek out feedback and use it to make progress towards their goals.
Individuals with a growth mindset understand that effort is the key to success. They are not afraid to put in the work required to achieve their aspirations. They view failure as a natural part of the learning process and use it as motivation to keep moving forward. This mindset fosters resilience, optimism, and a willingness to take on new challenges.
Highlight
A fixed mindset limits growth potential by constraining individuals within a narrow view of their abilities and intelligence. It hinders learning, collaboration, and personal development. On the other hand, a growth mindset opens up a world of possibilities by empowering people to embrace challenges, learn from failures, and reach their full potential. By cultivating a growth mindset, individuals can unlock their innate talents and achieve greater success in all areas of life.
2. Growth mindset fosters resilience and success
In the world of mindset, the belief that abilities can be developed is the key to fostering resilience and achieving success. This belief, known as the growth mindset, shapes our attitudes towards challenges, setbacks, and failures. Those with a growth mindset see these obstacles as opportunities for growth and learning, rather than insurmountable roadblocks. They understand that effort and perseverance are essential for improvement, and they embrace challenges as a chance to stretch their abilities.
By cultivating a growth mindset, individuals are better equipped to bounce back from setbacks and failures. Instead of viewing these experiences as reflections of their innate abilities, they see them as temporary setbacks that can be overcome through effort and determination. This resilience allows them to navigate the inevitable ups and downs of life with a sense of optimism and perseverance.
Furthermore, a growth mindset is closely linked to success. Individuals who believe in the power of effort and dedication are more likely to achieve their goals and reach their full potential. They understand that success is not just a result of innate talent, but a product of hard work, learning, and perseverance. This mindset fosters a sense of resilience that enables individuals to overcome obstacles and continue moving forward, even in the face of adversity.
Highlight
The belief that abilities can be developed is a powerful force that drives individuals towards resilience and success. Those who embrace a growth mindset are better equipped to face challenges, bounce back from setbacks, and achieve their goals. By understanding the power of effort and perseverance, individuals can unlock their full potential and thrive in the face of adversity.
3. Effort is key to learning and improvement
In the world of a growth mindset, effort is seen as the pathway to mastery and success. People who possess this mindset understand that learning and improvement require dedication, hard work, and perseverance. They believe that their abilities can be developed through effort and that challenges are opportunities to grow and learn.
When faced with a difficult task, individuals with a growth mindset embrace the challenge and put in the necessary effort to overcome obstacles. They understand that making mistakes and experiencing setbacks are all part of the learning process. Instead of giving up when faced with failure, they view it as a stepping stone to future success.
In contrast, individuals with a fixed mindset believe that their abilities are static and cannot be changed. They may avoid challenges in fear of failure and view effort as fruitless. They may be quick to give up when faced with obstacles, believing that they lack the innate talent or intelligence to succeed.
The belief that effort is key to learning and improvement is deeply ingrained in the mindset of successful individuals. They understand that talent alone is not enough to achieve mastery and that consistent effort and hard work are essential components of success. By embracing challenges, persisting in the face of setbacks, and putting in the necessary effort, they are able to continuously grow and improve.
Highlight
The mindset one adopts can have a profound impact on their ability to learn and grow. Those who believe in the power of effort are more likely to achieve success and reach their full potential. By cultivating a growth mindset and embracing the idea that effort is key to learning and improvement, individuals can unlock their true potential and achieve greatness in all areas of their lives.
4. Embrace challenges to enhance skills
In a fixed mindset, challenges are often viewed as threats to one's abilities. People with this mindset tend to avoid challenges in order to protect their self-image of being talented or smart. However, this approach hinders their growth and learning potential. On the other hand, individuals with a growth mindset see challenges as opportunities to learn and improve. They embrace challenges as a way to enhance their skills and knowledge.
When faced with a difficult task, those with a growth mindset are more likely to put in the effort and persist despite setbacks. They understand that struggling and making mistakes are essential parts of the learning process. By embracing challenges, they push themselves out of their comfort zones and develop resilience in the face of adversity.
Moreover, embracing challenges allows individuals to expand their capabilities and reach their full potential. When confronted with a new problem or obstacle, those with a growth mindset approach it with curiosity and a willingness to learn. They see setbacks as temporary and view failures as opportunities for growth and development.
By actively seeking out challenges, individuals with a growth mindset continuously push themselves to improve and acquire new skills. They understand that mastery is a journey filled with obstacles and setbacks, but they remain committed to their goals and persevere in the face of difficulties.
Highlight
Embracing challenges is a fundamental aspect of developing a growth mindset. By adopting this approach, individuals can unlock their full potential and achieve greater success in various areas of life. Instead of shying away from challenges, they see them as opportunities to learn, grow, and enhance their skills. Through perseverance and a positive attitude towards challenges, individuals can overcome obstacles and reach new heights of achievement.
5. Feedback is valuable for growth
In the world of growth mindset, feedback is seen as a crucial tool for development and improvement. Those with a growth mindset understand that feedback is not a personal attack or a judgment of their abilities, but rather an opportunity to learn and grow. They see feedback as a way to gain valuable insights into their strengths and weaknesses, allowing them to make necessary adjustments and improvements.
By seeking out feedback and actively listening to what others have to say, individuals with a growth mindset can identify areas where they need to focus their efforts in order to improve. They understand that feedback is not always easy to hear, but they are willing to face it head-on in order to continue growing and developing.
In contrast, those with a fixed mindset tend to shy away from feedback, viewing it as a threat to their self-image. They may become defensive or dismissive when receiving feedback, refusing to acknowledge any areas where they may need to improve. This mindset can be detrimental to growth and development, as it prevents individuals from learning from their mistakes and making the necessary changes to reach their full potential.
In the world of growth mindset, feedback is not something to be feared or avoided, but rather embraced and valued. It is seen as an essential part of the learning process, providing valuable insights and opportunities for growth. By approaching feedback with an open mind and a willingness to learn, individuals can use it as a powerful tool for personal and professional development.
Highlight
Those with a growth mindset understand that feedback is not a reflection of their worth as a person, but rather an opportunity to better themselves and reach new heights. They are willing to face criticism and challenges head-on, knowing that it is all part of the journey toward continuous improvement and growth.
6. Success comes from perseverance and grit
In the world of fixed mindset, individuals believe that success is primarily based on innate talent or intelligence. They are often wary of challenges and quickly give up when faced with obstacles or setbacks. This mindset leads to a desire to constantly prove oneself, as failure is seen as a reflection of one's abilities.
On the other hand, individuals with a growth mindset understand that success is a result of perseverance and grit. They embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and view failure as a stepping stone towards improvement. These individuals are willing to put in the effort and hard work required to achieve their goals, knowing that their abilities can be developed over time.
Perseverance and grit are essential qualities for success, as they enable individuals to push through difficult times and stay committed to their goals. Instead of being discouraged by failure, those with a growth mindset use it as a learning experience and a chance to improve. This resilience allows them to navigate obstacles with determination and resilience, ultimately leading to success.
By cultivating a growth mindset and focusing on perseverance and grit, individuals can overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. This shift in mindset not only leads to greater success but also promotes a sense of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Success is no longer viewed as a fixed outcome but as a result of hard work, effort, and a willingness to learn and grow.
7. Intelligence can be developed through effort
In a fixed mindset, people believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence or talent, are fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. They also believe that talent alone creates success - without effort. They're wrong. In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work - brains and talent are just the starting point.
This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Virtually all great people have had these qualities. Teaching a growth mindset creates motivation and productivity in the worlds of business, education, and sports. It enhances relationships.
What's so magical about effort? Well, it turns out that when you believe in your potential to develop your abilities, you take on challenges, work harder, and learn more. Teaching a growth mindset creates motivation and productivity in the worlds of business, education, and sports. It enhances relationships.
It fosters resilience in the face of obstacles. When things are not going well and you're tempted to give up, the growth mindset holds you together. The fixed mindset, on the other hand, makes it harder to bounce back from setbacks. When you enter a mindset, you enter a new world. In one world - the world of fixed traits - success is about proving you're smart or talented. Validating yourself. In the other - the world of changing qualities - it's about stretching yourself to learn something new. Developing yourself.
People in a growth mindset don't just seek challenge, they thrive on it. The bigger the challenge, the more they stretch. And nowhere can it be seen more clearly than in the world of sports. The growth mindset allowed athletes to continue pursuing their goals despite setbacks. They were not consumed with proving they were better than others. Instead, they focused on becoming better.
8. Learn from failures to grow stronger
When we face setbacks or failures, it's easy to become discouraged and lose confidence in our abilities. However, these failures can actually be valuable learning experiences that help us grow and improve. By adopting a growth mindset, we can see failures as opportunities for development rather than as indicators of our lack of ability. This shift in perspective allows us to approach challenges with resilience and determination, knowing that we have the capacity to learn and adapt.
When we embrace a growth mindset, we are more likely to view failures as temporary setbacks rather than permanent reflections of our capabilities. Instead of giving up when faced with obstacles, we can use these moments as opportunities to reflect on our performance, identify areas for improvement, and develop new strategies for success. This process of learning from failure not only strengthens our skills and knowledge but also builds our confidence and resilience in the face of future challenges.
By reframing our understanding of failure, we can cultivate a sense of optimism and persistence that enables us to bounce back stronger than before. Rather than seeing setbacks as insurmountable barriers, we can view them as stepping stones on the path to growth and achievement. This shift in mindset empowers us to approach challenges with a sense of curiosity and openness, knowing that each failure brings us one step closer to success.
Highlight
Learning from failures is not just about overcoming obstacles but about embracing them as opportunities for growth and self-improvement. By adopting a growth mindset, we can transform setbacks into valuable lessons that ultimately help us become stronger, more resilient individuals. So, the next time you encounter failure, remember that it is not a reflection of your abilities but a chance to learn, adapt, and grow.
9. Beliefs shape behavior and outcomes
In the world of mindset, the power of beliefs cannot be underestimated. Our beliefs have a profound impact on our behavior and the outcomes we achieve. When we believe in our abilities and have a growth mindset, we are more likely to take on challenges and persist in the face of obstacles. On the other hand, when we have a fixed mindset and believe that our abilities are set in stone, we are more likely to avoid challenges and give up easily.
Our beliefs shape the way we approach life and the choices we make. If we believe that we can learn and grow, we are more likely to seek out opportunities for learning and improvement. This can lead to greater success and fulfillment in the long run. On the other hand, if we believe that our abilities are fixed, we are more likely to stick to what we know and avoid taking risks. This can limit our potential and keep us stuck in a cycle of mediocrity.
The outcomes we achieve are a direct result of our beliefs and the actions we take based on those beliefs. If we believe that we are capable of achieving our goals, we are more likely to put in the effort and persist in the face of challenges. This can lead to positive outcomes and a sense of accomplishment. However, if we believe that success is out of reach, we are more likely to give up at the first sign of difficulty. This can lead to feelings of frustration and defeat.
In order to achieve our full potential and live a fulfilling life, it is essential to cultivate a growth mindset and believe in our ability to learn and grow. By changing our beliefs and adopting a more positive and empowering mindset, we can shape our behavior and outcomes in a way that leads to greater success and happiness. Remember, our beliefs are powerful forces that can either hold us back or propel us forward. It is up to us to choose the beliefs that will lead us to the life we truly desire.
10. Cultivate a love for learning
In order to truly excel in life, it is essential to foster a deep passion for acquiring knowledge. This passion is what drives individuals to continuously seek out new information and skills, leading to personal growth and development. When one cultivates a love for learning, they are able to approach challenges with a sense of curiosity and enthusiasm, rather than fear or reluctance.
This mindset allows individuals to embrace setbacks and failures as opportunities for growth, rather than as indicators of their limitations. By viewing challenges as learning experiences, one is able to develop a growth mindset, where they believe that their abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. This belief empowers individuals to persevere in the face of obstacles, knowing that their efforts will ultimately lead to improvement and success.
Those who have a love for learning are not afraid to step outside of their comfort zones and try new things. They understand that failure is a natural part of the learning process and do not let it deter them from pursuing their goals. Instead, they use failures as valuable lessons that help them to refine their skills and strategies.
By continuously seeking out new knowledge and experiences, individuals with a love for learning are able to expand their horizons and reach their full potential. They are open to feedback and actively seek out opportunities for growth and self-improvement. This proactive approach to learning allows them to adapt to new challenges and thrive in an ever-changing world.
Highlight
Cultivating a love for learning is about embracing a mindset of growth and possibility. It is about approaching life with a sense of curiosity and wonder, and recognizing that there is always more to learn and discover. By fostering a deep passion for knowledge, individuals can unlock their full potential and achieve success in all areas of life.
11. Embrace obstacles as opportunities for growth
When we encounter obstacles, we often feel discouraged and frustrated, viewing them as barriers to our success. However, adopting a growth mindset can change our perspective and help us see obstacles as opportunities for learning and development. Instead of avoiding challenges, we can embrace them as chances to improve and grow.

They understand that facing difficulties can lead to personal growth and development. By reframing obstacles as opportunities for learning, they are able to overcome challenges with resilience and determination.
Embracing obstacles as opportunities for growth requires a shift in mindset.

Highlight

13. Embrace the power of yet
In the fixed mindset, when you face challenges or setbacks, you may feel defeated and believe that you just don't have what it takes. Your self-esteem is tied to your intelligence or talent, so failure is a blow to your ego. This leads to a fear of failure and a reluctance to take risks. You may avoid challenges that could potentially expose your shortcomings, sticking with what you know you're good at instead.
However, in the growth mindset, setbacks are seen as opportunities for learning and growth. Instead of viewing failure as a reflection of your abilities, you see it as a temporary setback that you can learn from. When you encounter difficulties, rather than giving up or becoming discouraged, you maintain a positive attitude and keep pushing forward. You believe that with effort and perseverance, you can improve and overcome obstacles.
One powerful way to cultivate a growth mindset is to embrace the power of yet. When you encounter a challenge or struggle with something, instead of saying "I can't do this," you add the word yet at the end. This simple addition changes your mindset from one of defeat to one of possibility. It acknowledges that you may not have mastered something YET, but with time and effort, you can improve and succeed.
By embracing the power of yet, you shift your focus from fixed limitations to growth potential. You become more open to taking on challenges and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. You recognize that your abilities are not set in stone but can be developed through hard work and dedication. This mindset allows you to approach obstacles with resilience and determination, knowing that even if you haven't succeeded YET, you have the capacity to learn and grow.
Highlight
Embracing the power of yet is about adopting a mindset of growth and possibility. It encourages you to view setbacks as temporary roadblocks rather than permanent barriers. By cultivating this mindset, you can unlock your full potential and achieve greater success in all areas of your life.
14. Celebrate progress over perfection
In the fixed mindset, imperfections are shameful and problematic. They're something to be denied and hidden. It's so important to look perfect, to be perfect, that everything else pales in comparison. In the growth mindset, imperfections are something to be acknowledged, shared, and celebrated. They're what make us human, what connect us to each other. It's so important to be growing, learning, and improving, that everything else comes second. In the fixed mindset, setbacks and failures are signs of inadequacy. They're proof that we're not good enough, that we'll never be good enough. In the growth mindset, setbacks and failures are signs of progress. They're proof that we're pushing ourselves, challenging ourselves, and growing. They're not the end of the road, but just a bump along the way.
In the fixed mindset, success is about proving how great we are. It's about showing the world that we're better than everyone else. In the growth mindset, success is about learning and growing. It's about becoming the best version of ourselves, not about being better than others. It's about celebrating our progress, not our perfection.
When we focus on progress over perfection, we free ourselves from the shackles of the fixed mindset. We allow ourselves to make mistakes, to fail, to learn, and to grow. We shift our focus from being the best to becoming our best. We embrace the imperfections that make us unique, that make us human. We celebrate the journey, not just the destination. And in doing so, we open ourselves up to a world of endless possibilities and opportunities for growth.
15. Success is a journey, not a destination
In the fixed mindset, success is seen as a finished product. The emphasis is on the outcome, the final result. This mindset believes that success is based on talent alone, and that effort is not necessary. When people operate from a fixed mindset, they are focused on proving their abilities. They want to show that they are smart, talented, or capable. This mindset leads to a desire to look good at all costs. People in a fixed mindset are afraid to take on challenges that may reveal their limitations. On the other hand, the growth mindset sees success as a journey. The emphasis is on the process, the effort, and the learning that takes place along the way. People with a growth mindset believe that success is based on dedication and hard work. They understand that effort is necessary for growth and improvement. When people operate from a growth mindset, they are focused on developing their abilities. They see challenges as opportunities to learn and grow. They are not afraid to take risks or make mistakes, because they understand that these are essential for progress.
In the growth mindset, success is not about proving oneself, but about improving oneself. It is about pushing oneself beyond one's current limits and striving for personal development. People with a growth mindset understand that success is not a destination, but a journey. They know that true success is not about reaching a certain goal, but about continually growing, learning, and evolving. Success is not a fixed endpoint; it is a continuous process of self-improvement. In the growth mindset, success is not a final destination to be reached, but a never-ending journey of growth and development.
16. Learning requires dedication and practice
In order to truly learn and grow, one must possess dedication and be willing to put in the necessary practice. This means committing oneself to the process of learning, accepting challenges, and persisting through difficulties. It requires a mindset that is open to growth and sees setbacks as opportunities for improvement. Without dedication and practice, learning becomes a stagnant and unfulfilling experience.
Dedication is the fuel that drives the learning process. It is the unwavering commitment to one's goals and the willingness to invest time and effort into achieving them. Dedication means showing up every day, ready to learn and grow, even when obstacles arise. It is the inner drive that pushes individuals to keep going, even when the going gets tough.
Practice is the vehicle through which learning takes place. It is the repetition and refinement of skills and knowledge that leads to mastery. Practice is not just about going through the motions; it is about actively engaging with the material, seeking feedback, and making adjustments as needed. It is the deliberate effort to improve and grow, one step at a time.
Together, dedication and practice create a powerful combination that propels individuals towards their learning goals. Dedication provides the motivation and drive, while practice offers the opportunity for growth and improvement. By embracing these principles, individuals can cultivate a mindset that is focused on learning and development, rather than fixed on limitations.
Highlight
Learning requires dedication and practice because it is a journey of continuous growth and improvement. It is about embracing challenges, seeking feedback, and persisting through difficulties. By committing oneself to the process of learning and engaging in deliberate practice, individuals can unlock their full potential and achieve their goals.
17. Abilities can be developed with hard work
The idea that abilities can be developed with hard work is a core principle in the field of mindset psychology. This concept challenges the traditional belief that intelligence and talent are fixed traits that we are born with and cannot change. Instead, it suggests that with dedication and effort, we can improve our skills and capabilities over time. This growth mindset is contrasted with a fixed mindset, which assumes that our abilities are predetermined and unchangeable.
Individuals with a growth mindset embrace challenges and view failures as opportunities for growth and learning. They understand that progress takes time and effort, and they are willing to put in the work to achieve their goals. In contrast, those with a fixed mindset avoid challenges and give up easily when faced with obstacles. They believe that their abilities are set in stone and see setbacks as a reflection of their inherent worth.
Research has shown that individuals with a growth mindset are more likely to succeed in various areas of life, including academics, sports, and relationships. This is because they are resilient in the face of adversity and are willing to learn from their mistakes. By focusing on the process of improvement rather than the end result, they are able to achieve greater success and fulfillment.
One key aspect of developing a growth mindset is the belief that effort leads to mastery. When we put in the hard work and dedication to improve our skills, we gradually become more competent and confident in our abilities. This process of growth and development is not always easy, but it is ultimately rewarding.
By understanding that abilities can be developed with hard work, we can adopt a growth mindset and approach challenges with a sense of optimism and determination. This shift in perspective can have a profound impact on our lives, allowing us to reach our full potential and achieve our goals. With perseverance and a willingness to learn, we can overcome obstacles and continue to grow and evolve as individuals.

These factors include a pattern of conduct, exploitation of peculiar sensitivities, being in a position of power, and having authority over something the plaintiff has interest in. The severe distress element is analyzed by factors that include physical manifestation of symptoms, psychological manifestation of symptoms, seeking medical treatment, duration of treatment and symptoms, evidence of impairment to daily function, and the outrageousness of the conduct. Lastly, the outrageous conduct must be the cause of the emotional distress.
