Melanie VanderPol-Bailey, MSW, CSW-PIP Today I want to explore the power of cultivating a growth mindset in our lives, in the lives of our families, and our communities. So, can we change how we think about things, including ourselves? The answer is yes. You can find a wealth of information on the topic of mindset, and PhD Carol S Dweck’s work, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, is just one of many resources available. Carol writes, “When there’s a setback, someone with a fixed mindset will start thinking, ‘Maybe I don’t have what it takes?’ They may get defensive and give up. A hallmark of a successful person is that they persist in the face of obstacles, and often, these obstacles are blessings in disguise.”
