The Money Podcast Kids Off School: Open vs Closed Mindset
The newest instalment of Kids Off School Rob discusses how having an open mindset can have a positive impact on your personal and professional life. In this insightful episode, Rob dives into the importance of a healthy mindset, how to look at challenges differently and why an open mindset is a persistent mindset that can help you reach your goals and achieve your dreams.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Having an open mindset and being aware of your thoughts and feelings means that you can control your emotions. You can control how you think, feel, decide and act.
- If you have a fixed or a closed mindset this means you are not willing to learn, you think that you are always right and are not open to trying new things. As opposed to having an open mindset with a desire to learn new things and be open to new experiences.
- Somebody with an open mindset listens to what others have to say. If you listen to others you will receive all the best information, people love to talk so if you listen to them people will be drawn to you. To be closed-minded is to not give others the opportunity to talk nor listen to what they have to say.
- The open mindset is persistence, and the closed mindset is to give up. Persistence means to keep going until you win and get what you want. Somebody who gives up easily has a defeated mindset, they may give up after trying just once. Nobody succeeds at anything the first time around and we all face our struggles.
- Open mindset is to see things as a challenge and closed mindset is to see things as a failure. If something on your journey goes wrong, look at it as a challenge and be one step closer to success. These people enjoy failure as they see it as a challenge. Somebody with a closed mindset will adopt the “I tried once and it didn’t work” mindset and use this is a reason to give up.
