 People in a growth mindset don't just seek challenge, they thrive on it. So says author Carol Dweck in her book Mindset. One of the questions she asked in her studies of fixed versus growth mindsets was, when do you feel smart? How would you answer that question? Some people said it was when they did something perfectly. Others said it was when they tackle a really difficult problem and do something they couldn't do before. It seems a long time endeavor. Perfection, if it's reached, can be a short term effort. Sometimes we seek perfection and it robs us of learning because we're doing something we already know we can do. It can deprive us of the challenges that help us learn. This week, lead well by taking on a challenge that helps you learn.
