 I have never heard about Carol Dweck before this assignment! However I really do like the who idea of praising the process! It makes sense that fixed mindset can hinder someone to make them think that are not good enough to do better. I am interested to learn more about the science behind it and the different findings from all the studies.

Growing up being a percussionist , there were many days that playing the right beats at the right moment was hard. However, our instructors taught us that if we keep practicing we will eventually get it with easy. This is the same concept that Carol Dweck is talking about in her videos.


I plan on using this idea of studying this semester and testing it out myself to see if it helps! I plan on looking more into it and see if there are any more studies that go along with this learning concept.

    Personally, I've a big advocate of the "not yet" mindset. It rewards the time and effort that people put forth instead of simply rewarding positive results. By praising the effort and process, we can support other people to grow and learn from their experiences so they can continually learn to improve to get better results in their future endeavors. The growth mindset encourages continual self-improvement, which will help individuals to strive for personal success.

Week 2 Story: The Ghost Who Wrestled with a Man

The Ghost Who Wrestled with a Man A long time ago, there was a ghost that walked the streets of a small town. He came to the edge of the town and laid down to rest. He started a fire and covered himself with a blanket. Hearing some twigs breaking, he ripped a hole in the blanket and peeped out to see what was coming. A man walked up  to the laying ghost and felt the ghost’s leg to see if he was real. After touching his leg, the man took a knife and tried to cut the ghost’s leg off. Before he could the ghost jumped up and screamed “What are you doing?” Frightening him, the man took off running back into the town. The next day, after a long walk along the town, the ghost again found a spot to make a fire and lay down to rest. He covered himself with the blanket and heard a man singing.
