Growth Mindset

Moving on up​

Your career success is in direct correlation with your attitude and your mindset. With the right growth mindset, you can save more money, practice good health, secure a successful career, and achieve your other goals.

Deciding to own and adjust your attitude will set you in the right growth mindset and will enhance your career in many ways.
​

1. YOUR ATTITUDE DETERMINES YOUR APTITUDE

Although this may seem obvious, we often don’t think about why this occurs. Here are some ways this happens:
​

• Your beliefs influence your level of efforts.
• You subconsciously strive to “be right” in terms of what you believe about yourself.
• Your attitude ultimately either pushes you forward or discourages you.​

2. TYPES OF GOALS

Each area of life may have different objectives, each of which requires a different attitude. For example, below is a list of common goals with suggestions and ideas to use as you as you work in that direction.
​

A. Furthering Your Education/Training
​

• Prioritize projects related to your education.
• Build a strong sense of confidence toward your own success.
• Learn about the facts you need to know that lead you to your success.

​

B. Getting a Job 

• Be realistic about your abilities and the jobs that are available.
• Be optimistic and know that there are employers who need your help.
• Learn to enhance the skills you need to have and increase your confidence.

​

C. Overcoming an Obstacle

• Recognize that the obstacle is only a challenge and believe that you’ll get through it.
• Become conscious of the present issues and acknowledge that you have to resolve them.  

​

D. Helping Others    

• Observe how other people help each other.
• Focus on our common humanity. How would you want to be helped?

​

E. Managing Your Money Successfully

• Practice being proactive.

• Take control of your spending habits.
• Be consistent about your own financial management and refuse to give up.

​

F. Healthy Living
           

• Recognize any troublesome attitudes and work on their transformation.
• Analyze what you’re doing and "find your why".
• Make a solid commitment to yourself to change your unhealthy behaviors.

​

3. CERTAIN ATTITUDES CAN LIMIT YOUR SUCCESS​

Here are a few common approaches that may not serve you as you reach for your goals:
​

• Self doubt.
• Low self confidence.
• Living in denial. ​

4. CERTAIN ATTITUDES CAN ENSURE YOUR SUCCESS

​Positive attitudes lead you in the right direction. Here are some that can assist you in your career:
