Joel Osteen baker_m https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252830642 Every day we have challenges that we can either see as opportunities to grow and make us stronger or weaken us and limit our potential.  I choose to grow!

In my own personal journey, I never took a traditional path, but have taken on new opportunities as they have presented themselves. And when new barrier arose, it became an opportunity to learn and adjust. lehman_b https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252959862 2018-04-18 12:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252959862 campbell_e https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963617 I try to help develop a growth mindset in my students and in my own child. I recognize my own progress towards developing a growth mindset in the various areas in my life. It has been helpful to reflect on how I may be able to shift my thinking and self-talk.]]> 2018-04-18 12:53:26 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963617 Validating Emotions vs. Empowering a Growth Mindset gosses_a https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963689 Though I think having a growth mindset about your ability to change your mood and circumstances is very valuable, I think telling people to have a "positive attitude" about a situation can sometimes invalidate someone's emotions. The person should first be able to identify and work through their feelings. Though the speaker was very inspirational, the video itself can be accidentally shaming to someone implying they should be able to move through sadness or anxiety quicker as he has a positive attitude and has a much more challenging situation than the typical person.  Also, implying someone just needs to remember or hear "you are beautiful" is not typically what is at the core of someone's eating disorder. This common misconception adds to the stigma of eating disorders implying a subtle shift in your thinking will create wellness. In actuality,  eating disorders are typically an unhealthy coping skill created in response to strong unpleasant emotions, trauma, or other challenges and require clinical significant support to change. ]]> 2018-04-18 12:53:36 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963689 I horvat_k https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963863 Growth Mindset is the idea that we never stop growing. We are constantly evolving and changing. We work to be better teachers, parents, colleagues and friends.]]> 2018-04-18 12:53:57 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963863 I exhibit a growth mindset by never giving up. I have always been the type of person to persevere through difficult situations. I might kick and scream along the way, but I don't give up. white_d2 https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963946 2018-04-18 12:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963946 Although I marked most of the growth mindset, I still find myself being fixed at times.; probably more than I care to admit. It's through perseverance that I try to focus on growth mindset because I believe that is how an individual develops. nosse_m https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963947 2018-04-18 12:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252963947 strang_d https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252964372 Growth mindset means no assumptions on limitations for myself or my students. It means to always assume growth. ANd most importantly, if there isn't growth for my kids, what motivators, changes adaptations can I make to facilitate it. For them and for myself. Easier for me to have it for my students. Get practice in having growth yet mindset with faiiures and difficulties and mistakes and the power of forgiveness and YET are important to build.

We must continually be open-minded, and persevere to collaborate with others, problem-solve, and respect that " others with differences may also be right" ]]> 2018-04-18 12:59:11 UTC https://padlet.com/baker_m/aj3qxaakfa5r/wish/252966344
