    Nurturing a Growth Mindset

    A How to Guide for Parents

    Developing the right mindset early on is


    crucial for a successful, happy life.
    - Rebecca Louick

    What is a Growth
    Mindset?
    It is the belief that our intelligence and abilities can improve with effort and
    perseverance. Those with a growth mindset are open to learning new strategies, willing
    to take risks and confront challenges, view failure as a learning opportunity, and
    generally more confident and resilient.

    1. Model It 2. Praise It
    - Share when you're feeling Praise EFFORT, not intelligence.
       discouraged and brainstorm
       solutions out loud  Say: I can see you worked really
    - Discuss positive Feelings & how     hard on this.
       perseverance helped you get there NOT You're so smart.
    - Discuss negative feelings and         
       calming strategies Say:Maybe it's time to try
    - Set and share personal goals another strategy.
    - Use the Power of YET: NOT:It's okay. Maybe you're just
      Turn I can't... statements  not cut out for this.
       into  I can't...YET!

    3. Accept Mistakes as
    Learning Opportunities
    - Start by sharing your mistakes and what you learned from them to
       normalize the idea that mistakes are okay
    - Explain that taking risks and making mistakes is part of the learning 
      Process.
    - Encourage productive struggle. Give your child time to think things
      through before "Saving" them. Try brainstorming solutions with them
      rather than giving them the answer.
    - Don't accept failure as an excuse to give up

    "Love Challenges, Be Intrigued by mistakes, enjoy effort and keep on learning" 


    - Carol Dweck
