Lesson: ​The Growth Mindset
One of the Foundational Pillars of the Fight ON! Mentality 


Research shows that SPORTS are 90% MENTAL, but the majority of athletes don't work on their mental game.  That's one of the biggest problems in achieving peak performance day in and day out.  

You are probably wondering why so many athletes and coaches spend so little time in developing their mental game.  The main reason is there are not alot of WELL STRUCTURED PROGRAMS to help coaches and athletes.  Instead, coaches and athletes spend most of their time developing their skills and physical abilities and not enough time on their mental game.  

The majority of people believe that they have a "FIXED" mindset and believe their qualities are fixed traits and therefore cannot change. These people document their intelligence and talents rather than working to develop and improve them. They also believe THAT TALENT ALONE LEADS TO SUCCESS, and EFFORT IS NOT REQUIRED.  

A fixed mindset will never allow athletes to truly realize the level of success they are capable of.  They will never reach their full potential and perform at peak levels. 

But there is good news...everyone can change their mindsets.  Fight ON! Mentality can help!  Turn ON! your game mentality today.

Dweck, 2015 Growth Mindset: “In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.”

What is Growth Mindset?

The reality is having a fixed mindset fills you up with limitations and no forward approach. Whereas the growth mindset is the belief that our abilities and skills can be developed through hard work and dedication. It is a simple practical belief that if we don’t put in some effort, we would be stuck at where we are right now.

If you are an athlete, you are never perfect, there is always room to learn more strategies and skills. In the same way, if you are a business person, you would always learn new things in every meeting you conduct if you allow yourself. It is all about accepting that there is always room for improvement. Not only from the sports or business point of view but personally the growth mindset will benefit you in every aspect of your life.

If you don’t allow yourself to accept the possibility of betterment, it is time you do that. Your personal and professional life will change a lot once you change the way you think about your skills.

Here is how you can develop a growth mindset:

• Embrace the imperfections

Not in others, but accept the failures and imperfections in yourself. You won’t get anything y criticizing others and portraying yourself as perfect. It will just make you stuck at a point. Embrace what you are and look forward to improving it.

• Pay attention to your words

If you are arrogant, rigid, and your communication reflects this, it is time to change it. Focus on what you have been saying lately, about yourself and the others. If your communication is dark and shallow, the results will also be the same. Focus on the words and become your guide towards better conversations.

• Have a purpose

Do you have any purpose in your life? Purpose and passion are things that drive a person’s actions and thoughts. If you are passionate about something, you would do anything to make yourself able to achieve it. So, cultivate a purpose and plan your steps towards it.

• Be realistic

You won’t learn a new skill, a new language, a new play in days. It takes time and you need to accept that. You can’t just let yourself become the perfectionist and try to master everything you come across in a day or two. It won’t work like that.

• Stop seeking approval from others

You are not what others say you are. This is the first step towards building insight. You ought to stop seeking approval from others and explore the real you regardless of what their opinions are. You know your strengths and weaknesses, and you have accepted them. You don’t need others to like you to move forward in your life. Be who you are and it will be a great step towards a growth mindset.

Developing a growth mindset might take time and effort, but you will see marvelous changes in your life once you take a step towards it. You have to allow yourself to think out of the box to succeed in every aspect of life.

The Growth Mindset is a critical part of the Fight ON! Mentality, serving as one of the three foundational pillars, along with The Mamba Mentality and Mindfulness.
