Spend 2 minutes in silent meditation focusing on Malala's quote. Notice what thoughts, feelings, or images arise.

Growth Mindset Reflection

MsRosanna — 2025-09-15 16:27:14 UTC

Pick three growth mindset statements you could tell yourself in similar future situations.

Determination Hero Spotlight

Find a quiet space, sit comfortably, and close your eyes. For 3 minutes, focus on your breathing while thinking about a time you persevered through something difficult.
