, Describe how a growth (versus fixed) mindset affects professional development.
Professional development can be significantly impacted by a growth mindset or set of
beliefs because they enable us to see obstacles as chances for learning rather than as
ways to obstruct or stop things. According to Carol Dweck (Stanford (former students),
2014), people who have a growth attitude or set of ideas think they can get better at
something by working hard and (the quality of continuing to do/try something for a long
time). This (opinion/behavior) (provides an incentive to act) encourages them to always
seek out new abilities and information. Rather than being afraid of failing, they view it as
a necessary step on the path to success, which is crucial for their current professional
development and (adaptability).
Describe why understanding the difference between “the tyranny of now” and “the
power of yet” is critical to professional development.
Knowing the difference between "the power of yet" and "the very bad treatment of
now" is crucial for professional development since it helps us change our attention from
short-term achievement to long-term progress. According to Dweck (2014), when we
become mired in "the very bad treatment of now," we perceive setbacks as irreversible
and demoralizing. However, embracing and encouraging "the power of yet" enables us
to see our current challenges as a temporary aspect of learning (Stanford (past
students), 2014). This mindset and way of thinking encourages us to keep moving
forward even in the face of adversity by helping to build patience and the quality of
perseverance.
