I was well into my adult years before I really started to understand how much choice I had in setting my mindset.
Mindset is defined as an established set of attitudes held by someone. It’s all about the way you think and feel about someone or something. This is typically reflected in our behavior, whether intentional or not. You can attach an infinite number of descriptors to mindset, including abundant, courageous, loving, positive, negative, fearful, or closed. The one I never connected until this powerful conversation about Mindset with Tai Beauchamp, is choice.
So many takeaways!
- Mindset is consciousness + intention
- Mindset is a choice
- Redirect anxiety to anticipation
- Be inspired by the mountaintops and then look at the cracks in the ground and be inspired there
- Ask how do I show up differently?
- How you begin is half the win
