Week 8 Growth Mindset


I definitely think that I have a lot more to work on with Growth Mindset. And hey, I guess that's a good thing cause that means I am using a Growth Mindset. I am, and have always been, a professional procrastinator. Lately though, it seems to have reached an all time high. I have forgotten about two exams in the last couple weeks and that's a bit frightening. I wanted to push myself to us a planner this semester and while I started out strong, I've slowly abandoned my planner. It's really difficult for me to develop a routine for myself cause I've never lived off a routine. I truly do want to work on this though. I'm sure school would give me a lot less anxiety if I could just stay focused on the task at hand and get things done. I feel I've made it pretty clear that I'm pretty far from achieving a Growth Mindset but the whole purpose is to use that to propel me and inspire me to reach that goal. For the second half of this semester I'm going to try to fill out my planner thoroughly so I don't miss anything. I'm also going to attempt not to put things off till the very last second. This post is actually being written earlier than usual for me. I typically don't start any homework till at least after 10pm. I know it's really terrible. I hope I can really hone in areas in my life where I can apply Growth Mindset because I think it would be very beneficial to me!

Ps. Meet Suri, she's my new fur-daughter. Basically my entire body is covered in scratches because I am her only playmate but I still love her. Oh, and she thinks she has to eat everything I eat, here she is trying to steal my Panera mac n cheese!
