Growth mindset · IN SHORT

From a personal labelto a learnable approach.

Examine the actual words you use with yourself or someone else. The skill identifies fixed judgements, rewrites them around behaviour and checks which problems need more than different wording.

Your brief

I keep saying I am simply bad at presenting. Tomorrow I need to give a short update.

Possible draft

Fictional example: learning to present

A possible rewrite is: I have not practised this opening yet. Today I can say it aloud once and ask a colleague for feedback. Inadequate preparation time remains a separate issue.

This example shows the approach. It is not a client result or a guarantee of a particular outcome.

03 / GET STARTED

A repeatable approach.Your own context.

  1. Examine the wording

    Identify fixed, mixed and growth language with a reason for each interpretation.

  2. Focus on behaviour

    Separate the person from the approach and make room for practice, feedback or help.

  3. Look beyond language

    Choose one action and name workload, resources or safety issues that wording cannot solve.

04 / MAKE IT YOURS

Ready foryour work.

Take the instructions, add your own context and review the draft. You stay in control.
