This told us to never keep a fixed mindset and that we can always change. :)

In this video I learnt that the world is not just rainbows and butterflies it is really tough to survive and you need the right mindset to face task that come your way in life. You need to face life with a growth mindset not a fixed one. We need to see thing differently and we can make all the difference in this world to make it a better place. :)

This video highlights the importance and effectiveness of a fixed mindset. When it speaks about environmental destruction or prioritizing money over family, negativity is present within the tone of the speaker. Immediately when the tone changed, I noticed that the person's mindset had grown, seeking positive change which benefits them and their loved ones. A fixed mindset is like an endless void, with no adventure to take on. No possibilities, no life-changing opportunities and lastly, no obstacles in life who truly shape you into the person you are. Change isn't possible if an action isn't taken. The capability to appreciate hope must be held in order to succeed in life. Allow your growth mindset to guide you and ensure that you remain resilient to overcome the challenges in your life. The Lost Generation is a perfect display of the evolving.

The lost generation in my eyes show the sorrow and rage the children and the parents suffered back

# data[].attributes.body
I can only imagine how traumatic the experience must have been as they have went through so much racism and discrimination just to have their children taken away afterwards. However in this video, we can see that the message being gotten across is to have an open mindset.

# data[].attributes.body
It is evident that the Lost Generations have experienced many things which could lower their esteem or make them lose hope.

The video showed me that there is no point in having a fixed mindset. What she says when using a fixed mindset seems very negative and certain to happen.

When she reverses the entire speech, her future seems positive, displaying both a growth and benefit mindset.

This video reminded me that a fixed mindset can always be changed to a growth and/or benefit mindset if the situation is viewed from a different angle.

# data[].attributes.body
No one has ever experienced as much as what the Lost Generation had dealt with. I had learnt from this video that by swapping or interpreting the words in the opposite manner, the lost generation demonstrated how a fixed mindset may be transformed into a growth mindset.

# data[].attributes.body
The lost generation showed me that you can find something positive out of any negative thing if you just look at if from a different way. However, it depends on which way you choose to look at the situation. This is where a growth and/or benefit mindset can come in. If you choose to look at the situation with a fixed mindset, you won't be able to find any good or positive outcomes. But from a growth or benefit mindset, you can open your mind and heart to see the much better aspect of the situation. This is what I think the video was trying to teach us.

Hope isn't something given to you, but must be found. The video showed me how with a fixed mindsight, one can lose all hope and could, possibly, become blind-sighted. A fixed mindset is almost like a spotlight, with it, you focus on one person or thing and you become lost in one performance. You become stuck appreciating only one person. With a growth mindset, you see the whole stage, all the people setting a magnificent performance before you. You see more and you learn to appreciate the different styles and themes influenced by the show. Like this, a growth mindset will help you achieve much more. The Lost Generation shows us how hope can be gained by just flipping you thinking into a growth and benefit mindset.

The lost generation shows us that with a fixed mindset and no hope, it will slowly consume you until you are just a figment of the shadows. Here’s some music to just make you relax and just vibe ✌️ -Z

I learned about the lost generation and I think the lost generation shows negative things can happen if people have a wrong opinion.
The lost generation is a dark period and it should not happen again

# data[].attributes.body
I think the video Lost Generation tried to teach us that there is always multiple ways to view a situation, but the outcome changes depending on our mindsets, whether it is fixed, growth or benefit.

# data[].attributes.body
This told me that if we change our mindset, we can change the future of the world

# data[].attributes.body
This video taught me about the value of having a benefit mindset. By staying resilient, we can influence the people around us and slowly change the world in our own way no matter how small it is. It also highlights the importance of taking care of your own wellbeing by putting family and yourself before work.

# data[].attributes.body
the lost generations shows that if we keep a fixed mindset then it will not make a change but if you keep an open mindset then you can certainly make a change and help not only your wellbeing but to serve everyone elses.

# data[].attributes.body
The video explained that there is a way of turning negative thoughts to positive thoughts. Even needing to go back and try again helps with a growth mindset.

# data[].attributes.body
From this video, the Lost Generation is trying to acknowledge those that will support those who are in need for safety. Showing us no matter the amount of damage, it will turn into a fixed mindset. Meaning anything is possible to be turned around.

# data[].attributes.body
It shows if you just do nothing and let everyone do things for you and just go with the flow then the world will be sadder place. Where as if you change and you use your power to make it better the world will be a happier, batter place for generations to come.

The term "Lost Generation" refers to the generation of people who reached adulthood during or immediately following World War I. In using the term "lost," psychologists were referring to the "disoriented, wandering, directionless" feelings that haunted many survivors of what had been one of the most horrific wars in modern history.

In a deeper sense, the lost generation was "lost" because it found the conservative moral and social values of their parents to be irrelevant in a post-war world. In the United States, President Warren G. Harding's "back to normalcy" policy calling for a return to the way of life before World War I, left the members of the lost generation feeling spiritually alienated from facing what they believed would be hopelessly provincial, materialistic, and emotionally barren lives.

Key Takeaways: The Lost Generation

Having witnessed what they considered pointless death on such a massive scale during the war, many members of the generation rejected more traditional ideas of proper behavior, morality, and gender roles. They were considered to be "lost" due to their tendency to act aimlessly, even recklessly, often focusing on the hedonistic accumulation of personal wealth.

In literature, the term also refers to a group of well-known American authors and poets including Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and T. S. Eliot, whose works often detailed the internal struggles of the "Lost Generation."

The term is believed to have come from an actual verbal exchange witnessed by novelist Gertrude Stein during which a French garage owner derisively told his young employee, "You are all a lost generation." Stein repeated the phrase to her colleague and pupil Ernest Hemingway, who popularized the term when he used it as an epigraph to his classic 1926 novel The Sun Also Rises.

In an interview for The Hemingway Project, Kirk Curnutt, author of several books about the Lost Generation writers suggested that they were expressing mythologized versions of their own lives.

Said Curnutt:

"They were convinced they were the products of a generational breach, and they wanted to capture the experience of newness in the world around them. As such, they tended to write about alienation, unstable mores like drinking, divorce, sex, and different varieties of unconventional self-identities like gender-bending."

Decadent Excesses

Throughout their novels The Sun Also Rises and The Great Gatsby, Hemingway and Fitzgerald feature the decedent, self-indulgent lifestyles of their Lost Generation characters. In both The Great Gatsby and Tales of the Jazz Age Fitzgerald depicts an endless stream of lavish parties hosted by the main characters.

With their values so completely destroyed by the war, the expatriate American circles of friends in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises and A Moveable Feast live shallow, hedonistic lifestyles, aimlessly roaming the world while drinking and partying.

Fallacy of Great American Dream

Members of the Lost Generation viewed the idea of the "American Dream" as a grand deception. This becomes a prominent theme in The Great Gatsby as the story's narrator Nick Carraway comes to realize that Gatsby's vast fortune had been paid for with great misery.

To Fitzgerald, the traditional vision of the American Dream-that hard work led to success-had become corrupted. To the Lost Generation, "living the dream" was no longer about simply building a self-sufficient life, but about getting stunningly rich by any means necessary.

The term "American Dream" refers to the belief that everyone has the right and freedom to seek prosperity and happiness, regardless of where or into what social class they were born. A key element of the American dream is the assumption that through hard work, perseverance, and risk-taking, anyone can rise "from rags to riches," to attain their own version of success in becoming financially prosperous and socially upwardly mobile.

The American Dream is rooted in the Declaration of Independence, which proclaims that "all men are created equal" with the right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

American freelance writer and historian James Truslow Adams popularized the phrase "American Dream" in his 1931 book Epic of America:

"But there has been also the American dream; that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for every man, with opportunity for each according to his ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position."

Since the 1920s, the American Dream has been questioned and often criticized by researchers and social scientists as being a misplaced belief that contradicts reality in the modern United States.

Gender-Bending and Impotence

Many young men eagerly entered World War I still believing combat to be more of a chivalrous, even glamorous pastime than an inhumane struggle for survival.

However, the reality they experienced-the brutal slaughter of more than 18 million people, including 6 million civilians-shattered their traditional images of masculinity and their perceptions around differing roles of men and women in society.

Left impotent by his war wounds, Jake, the narrator and central character in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, describes how his sexually aggressive and promiscuous female lover Brett acts as the man, trying to be "one of the boys" in an effort to control the lives of her sexual partners.

In T.S. Eliot's ironically titled poem " The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," Prufrock laments how his embarrassment from feelings of emasculation has left him sexually frustrated and unable to declare his love for the poem's unnamed female recipients, referred to as "they."

(They will say: 'How his hair is growing thin!')
My morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin,
My necktie rich and modest, but asserted by a simple pin-
(They will say: 'But how his arms and legs are thin!')

In the first chapter of Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, Gatsby's trophy girlfriend Daisy delivers a telling vision of her newborn daughter's future.

"I hope she'll be a fool-that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool."

In a theme that still resonates in today's feminist movement, Daisy's words express Fitzgerald's opinion of his generation as spawning a society that largely devalued intelligence in women.

While the older generation valued women who were docile and subservient, the Lost Generation held mindless pleasure-seeking as the key to a woman's "success."

While she seemed to bemoan her generation's view of gender roles, Daisy conformed to them, acting as a "fun girl" to avoid the tensions of her true love for the ruthless Gatsby.

Belief in an Impossible Future

Unable or unwilling to come to grips with the horrors of warfare, many of the Lost Generation created impossibly unrealistic hopes for the future.

This is expressed best in the final lines of The Great Gatsby in which narrator Nick exposed Gatsby's idealized vision of Daisy that had always prevented him from seeing her as she really was.

"Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter-tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning-So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."

The "green light" in the passage is Fitzgerald's metaphor for the perfect futures we continue to believe in even while watching it get ever farther away from us.

In other words, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the Lost Generation continued to believe that "one fine day," our dreams will come true.

A New Lost Generation?

By their very nature, all wars create "lost" survivors.

While returning combat veterans have traditionally died of suicide and suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) at much higher rates than the general population, returning veterans of the Gulf War and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are at an even higher risk. According to a 2016 report from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, an average of 20 of these veterans a day die from suicide.

Could these "modern" wars be creating a modern "Lost Generation?" With mental wounds often more serious and far more difficult to treat than physical trauma, many combat veterans struggle to reintegrate into civilian society. A report from the RAND Corporation estimates that some 20% of returning veterans either have or will develop PTSD.

i think that the lost generation video was trying to say not to have a fixed mindset

# data[].attributes.body
The lost generation is a horribly tragic story and I love it how this person used the poem to make us feel that there is hope for those people. Nice/10

# data[].attributes.body
The lost generation video shows us that the way we see the world is deeply affected by our mindset. So if we have a fixed mindset we would see the world as a bad place, whereas if we looked at the world from a growth mindset we would see the world as a better place.

# data[].attributes.body
In this video it showed that if our generation, the future does not fix the worlds existing problems and progress forward, we will be stuck in this horrible, dull world that we might be stuck and not come back from.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, the video about the lost generation was trying to show that having a fixed midset blocks off and restrict people from a possible happier life. However, being able to view the world in a differnt way unlocks many capabilities in the world.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the video was telling the audience that when living life with a fixed mindset we will be miserable and our abilities will be confined. Fixed mindsets stop us from achieving and trying new things. Whereas when you have a growth mindset, you will be more engaged and out there. You will try new things and may succeed.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the video shows that not everything is lost, and things can be turned around.

This is how easy it should be to change from a fixed mindset to a benefit mindset.  but don't change back"

With one since word we change either change the world or break it down. The idea of a fixed mindset, seeing the world from a perspective that can see the world through what it is, maybe worse than the true identity of the world. However, when reading back and changing just tiny little words, our world has been seen through the benefit mindsets, how we can make it better and how to look after ourselves and others

# data[].attributes.body
I think the video was trying to show that having growth mindsets will help the world evolve and for us to improve

The video about the Lost Generation showed us that with a growth mindset, you have your priorities altered to when you were in your fixed mindset. It shows us that with a growth mindset, you can make the world a better place and live in a world of your making.

being part of the lost generation is not gud

I think that from the video of the lost generation is trying to show us that for some this world is not a good place. It is trying to show us that if we all have a fixed mindset then the future will not be any better than it is today. With a growth mindset we are able to think differently and make the world suitable and safe for everyone.

# data[].attributes.body
In this video, I learnt that we mustn't only view ideas, theories, issues and problems in this world with a fixed mindset, a mindset that cannot be changed, a stubborn mindset. Instead, we must change this point of view completely and look at the world in a positive way, always believing that it can change for the better in the future. With a benefit mindset, and only with a benefit mindset, will this world change for the better of the people, animals, plants and land. We can all make a difference in this journey ahead.
