164: Mindset

Do you have a fixed mindset or a growth mindset? This week I explore a question brought up in our Embracing Intensity Community around Carol Dweck’s Mindset theory and how it relates to gifted and twice exceptional individuals.


Mindset

Highlights:

  • The limitations of growth vs. fixed mindset and how it relates to innate ability.

  • How gifted and twice exceptional individuals can benefit from aspects of growth mindset.

  • Exploring mindset theory in relation to Dabrowski’s theory of positive disintegration.
