"Everyone is born with an intense drive to learn"
~ Carol Dweck
A great example of growth mindset in action
Meet Arthur. Arthur's got a big story to tell and you can find that out in the video. What I want to highlight to you is that his story through Arthur's story, we see growth mindset in action. Arthur is initially scared to risk effort and has to face many failures, but Arthur is open to take on the challenge. I think my favourite part of this movie is when Arthur says "I may not be able to do it today, but I will be able to do it someday."
​
Arthur's journey is a great representation of true learning. Learning is often prettied up to make it look like someone showed up and nailed it on the first attempt. This is just not reality. Learning is tough, and requires determination, resilience and grit. But if you accept that the steps to learning are not always easy, then you, just like Arthur, can achieve the most amazing things.
