Growth Mindset

I have never heard of Carol Dweck or the growth mindset before It my first time hearing it. I think I saw my self on growth mindset in my school work.  Yes you could relate this theory to other area like sport, music, cooking etc. I think I had fixed mind set over here at OU because high school was easy but now college is hard and I am trying to get out my easy comfort zone so I could get better.  I would definitely interested in learning more about the growth mindset this semester.  I am really worried about 3 classed that I am taking because those are really hard class so I could probably get better at it.

    Jay, I hadn't heard of the growth mindset either, until this course! I think I have the same mindset as you, I relate to the part about high school being easy, and college being a bit more of a challenge. With that in mind, best of luck this semester in your courses, especially in the three tough ones you mentioned.

    I hadn’t heard of Carol Dweck or “Growth Mindset” either! I’m trying to do some extra credit this week so I am looking forward to doing a post on one of the challenges. I can relate a lot to what you posted about feeling worried. I only need two more classes to FINISH my degree and I’m so stressed out that I’ll fail. Funny enough, that fear has impeded me and made it more likely that I would fail, it was *anti* growth mindset. Good luck to us both!

Story: Parvati Heroic feat.

It was chaos on the Earth because Demons were running rampant on the Earth for past hundred years. So Goddess Parvati decides to reincarnate with the mortal body on Earth so she could end the evil. She was foreseen that the Earth was going to be in grave danger in the future. She decided to get born in a small village on Earth where she will wait for right time to come to kill the demon called Mahishasura and when she also decided to get born with no memories of her being Parvati and just normal mortal girl and she did that for a special reason. Mahishasura was the demon king at that time and he was part demon and part bull. He was also a big devotee of God of Creation Brahma. Mahishasura meditated for thousands of years so he could please God of Creation Brahma. His motive for doing that was so that he could gain power and immortality. After such a long penance Lord Brahma was pleased and presented in front of him and asked him for any boon that he desires. Mahishasura asked for ...
