Resiliency and Bouncing Forward: #MindsetMonday Season 4 EP2

“The Innovator’s mindset can be defined as the belief that the abilities, intelligence, and talents are developed so that they lead to the creation of new and better ideas. ” - Excerpt From The Innovator's Mindset, George Couros Couros begins this second episode of Mindset Monday with a brief reflection on last week’s episode about effort. This week, Couros focuses on obstacles. Throughout this episode of Mindset Monday, Couros shares ways he has “bounced forward.” Quotes: “People who cultivate a growth mindset are more resilient in the face of setbacks or obstacles. The growth mindset, after all, relishes the process of learning, not achievement” - The Growth Mindset Coach, Annie Brock & Heather Hundley “By altering the way we look at the challenges above (and many others that I haven’t listed), we can shift from a mindset of obstacles to one of opportunities. This is the embodiment of the Innovator’s Mindset.” - Couros, George; Novak, Katie, Innovate Inside the Box: Empowering Learners Through UDL and the Innovator's Mindset Resilience doesn’t just mean getting back to normal after facing a difficult situation. It means learning from the process in order to become stronger and better at tackling the next challenge.”- Donna Volpitta Links: The Growth Mindset Coach (book on Amazon) - https://www.amazon.com/Growth-Mindset-Coach-Month-Month-ebook/dp/B01IMJVMIO The Innovator’s Mindset (book on Amazon) - https://www.amazon.com/Innovators-Mindset-Empower-Learning-Creativity/dp/0986155497 Innovate Inside the Box - https://www.amazon.com/Innovate-Inside-Box-Empowering-Innovators/dp/1948334127 __________________________________________ Please share your thoughts with us on Twitter or Instagram at #InnovatorsMindset.
