055 Developing a growth mindset

David Johnson

Mar 8, 2024 — 1 min read

In this episode, we’re getting into the belly of the growth mindset. It’s all about the power of “if I’m consistent and put the effort in, I can do this”, versus the trap of “Nah, I’m good, I don’t like being uncomfortable”.

We talk about what a growth mindset is, explore some philosophical ideas that support it (quelle surprise, Stoicism turns up), and look at some strategies for how you can action it in your own life.

Hopefully, we’ll leave you with a roadmap for getting on the path to being curious, open minded, and willing to learn new things.

Much love,
David
