For 45 years, I’ve been plagued with a fixed mindset. It almost killed me. But, by God, I am going to learn now because finally I’m not going to let the stories rob me of my actions. I want to live that abundant life and it’s going to take action. Thanks for this helpful video.
its true... its so easy to not reflect on whats happening in our lives and just keep doing the things we do. its only when we realise we are our worst enemy and we have to grow from it ... is when change and amaxing things happen
I learned how to shuffle cards by watching people do it, picking up a deck and trying to imitate them. Took me days to do it swiftly and effieciently, and I dropped the cards on the floor hundreds of times. Now I RARELY drop them, and I think back on that simple little task to motivate me with whatever more difficult thing I'm trying to learn. When I fuck up, I think about the pile of cards on the floor and then I pick them back up.
Absolutely AWESOME! I earned my Ph.D., when I was 59 years old, BUT with a fixed mindset. Yes, you can be a lifelong learner and still have a fixed mindset. Fear of failure, not quite believing I could do it. I passionately love this video. This is is next explanation of Carol's work, I've seen
I am 57 and I have had a naturally optimistic viewpoint my whole life. However, I realized that over time I had developed a fixed mindset about myself in some areas. In particularly, in learning new skills. "As a Man (or woman) thinketh in his heart, so is he." -Proverbs 23:7 Powerful. Love this video which illustrates this so beautifully and practically.
This is certainly one of the ideas that changed my life and made me think. Building up on this idea I have started learning "Artificial Intelligence", I am seeing Mathematics which ditched me once. Learning is at core of all you aspire for.... Can't thank you enough, though there are some videos available, This is the best representation. Keep learning, keep Sharing, Keep growing.... Stay blessed!!
I'll try to put this theory to the test. I'm convinced that if you keep trying you'll receive a result. However, the more important thing is not the outcome but driving pleasure from activity. Thus, if you don't like what you are doing at the moment, it's better throw in the towel.
That rings true. But at the same time, as the saying goes, eating wants but a beginning. I mean when we embark on something new to us, we are bound to encounter a lot of setbacks and to be on a steep learning curve, with motivation slumping, even vanishing into thin air at times. This will hardly bring any pleasure. But the intoxicating sense of achievement you get upon completion of something truly challenging and stretching, may well do the trick. And who knows, you may well take to the activity over the course of time.
This is brilliant i am a weak learner and this gives me hope to better myself at things like photography,computers,fishing,pool,videogames ,driving and DIY.I wont give up even thou im 41
Brilliant insights on neuroplasticity at (10:01)! It’s inspiring to hear how our brains can continuously adapt and change with practice. Thanks for simplifying such a complex topic! 🧠
This is setting a new standard. I read a book with a similar theme, and it set a new standard for me. "Rising From Within: Unlocking Your Innate Power to Conquer Adversity" by Vincent Starling
I came across this during a work thing and I realized, I believe I have a fixed mindset for some things but a growth mindset for others. For example in regards to work I've realized I have a fixed mindset but I've been learning new skills (not related to work) and I do approach them with a growth mindset. It's very interesting to see that they clarify this is very possible.
You are not born with skills, you are born with talents. Skills are built on your talents. Those with the underlying talent have a leg up on learning related skills that others don't.
Brother thank you for all your hard work, the quality of your videos is excellent. Please keep making content, this message is so integral to learning. As a sports coach promoting a growth mindset should be the first and foremost skill we deliver, and your helping us achieve that.
I'm so delighted that I came across this video whilst searching for the best movie about persistent, to get me going on my goal. This is a blessing and thanks to Trever Ragan..
We're sharing this message on leadership development programs in Africa! Trevor, you're having a global impact thank you! Love your videos, believe the message!
Thank you very much Brother for your work hard for sharing this valuable knowledge that I can apply effectively in any aspect, work. May God Bless you always.
This is exactly how a weak learner gets into gear.I didnt start learning anything until i was 25 when i passed my driving test.That little win in life started me on a new journey of throwing myself into things of interest and i continued to have success after alot of work persistance and belief.This video is excellent its actaully the best ive seen on the subject of learning.I wish id learned this stuff in school like sticking to my level of maths and building on it instead of quiting and going to sleep every day in class.I really feel like i learned absolutly nothing in school even thou my grades were average.Def show this video to your students and please give the ones who dont get this more of your time.They will thank you forever if you give them the gift of getting the most out of your life by using your brain properly.
I am almost 100% growth mindset but I also know that because of a diagnosed disability I cannot be a math person. I'm concerned that this might give people with certain disabilities false hope that hurts them further when they work extremely hard at something but cannot achieve it.
I think growth mindset isn’t about “anyone can become a ___ person,” it’s more that “no one is a ___ person,” meaning skills are learned, it’s not that some people can just do it naturally. “I’m not a ___ person” is often just a convenient false belief that lets us off the hook from having to try ro learn or improve our skills. At the same time, it’s probably true that some people really can’t improve certain skills due to disabilities or other specific factors. Still, (maybe it’s just the growth mindset in me but) I would suspect even they can improve their skills 1 or 2% better than they currently are. Except in extreme cases, like someone without the use of their legs trying to learn skiing, obviously in some cases it just isn’t possible.
Also, I think the whole idea of “a __ person” is part of a less helpful mindset. I find that the less I focus on who/what i AM and the more I focus on what i DO, the more helpful it is and the better results I get. Simple example - if I do something stupid, it’s much much easier to calmly observe what happened, forgive myself, and learn from it, if I acknowledge the *reality* that i DID something stupid, rather than telling myself the *story* that i AM stupid.
Hey i believe i can get better at anything, but sometimes i am stopped by and i think others are too, is that we think that the work will be too hard for the pay off. To reach the level of growth that they want will take to many hours, I believe its possible to get better ,but if i don't love the activity enough, the idea of killing yourself over it doesnt seem worth it. People think yeah i can be great at something, but i wont want to work at something like piano 4 hrs a day to see some improvement that i want, so why try... How do we get past this, "im so bad, just getting a little bit better isnt worth hours of effort"
How about breaking it down to your resistant level.. like instead of spending 4 hrs at a time chunk it.. liking doing it for 45 minutes at time.. that is what I would do
Only just started the video, which seems great but the music / score you put in the background super distracts me and makes this quite painful to watch. Maybe it just needs adjusting to turn the volume of that down
I would LOVE for you to make another one of these but shorter so it can be geared toward kids. I'd love for my students to watch this but its a bit long. EVer consider editing this down to 5 minutes for kiddos?
Here is a free mindset assessment that you can use to identify the degree to which you have a growth mindset (plus three other mindsets): ryangottfredson.com/personal-mindset-assessment
I have used this lately and works really good but than this brain between my ear starts to talk and say :"who do think u are? You make people around you look bad when you try so hard." how do i deal with this? Probably beliefs i got from my parents..
Thank you for publishing a inspirational, adequate, and awesome video. I'm not saying this due to my opinion, and for other's who've seen this, I hope they fill the same way, eventually.
In addition to having a positive motivation to achieve your requested goals, even in school, that facility worker should've also said, ''having a bit of integrity, as well.
Holy fuck is it just the fixed mindset in me or is the 10 years old talking extremely condescending? Like this is so easy a child can learn it but here I am struggling.

Excellent! This declaration is very important.
Damn...
I am 21 years old, but i learnd that 2 mounths ago, time is gold

Thanks for your support 😔

This has helped me tremendously. I will be aiming to get a little better every single day, so thank you.
Was watching this for an assignment , found that i agreed most of these ideas and concepts.
Love, The Explanatory, Examples, Convincing, Goes STRAIGHT In MIND
This is certainly one of the ideas that changed my life and made me think. Building up on this idea I have started learning "Artificial Intelligence", I am seeing Mathematics which ditched me once.
Learning is at core of all you aspire for.... Can't thank you enough, though there are some videos available, This is the best representation.
Keep learning, keep Sharing, Keep growing.... Stay blessed!!
Learning is the core of all aspire... without learning we become stagnant. Growth mindset can change us so much
Excellent! Having a growth mindset you embrace lifelong learning and continuous improvement. Thanks for sharing.
Learning is fun and knowledge is power .
8:28 is when it starts..how do I build a growth mind set..
I'll try to put this theory to the test. I'm convinced that if you keep trying you'll receive a result. However, the more important thing is not the outcome but driving pleasure from activity. Thus, if you don't like what you are doing at the moment, it's better throw in the towel.

Very interesting thanks a lot
Can I use some part of the video,I got a project at school and I want to put one part of your video in to my,please answer
Thank you very good Information
2:35 triggered me cause the background music is in so many online school pre recorded videos
Only just started the video, which seems great but the music / score you put in the background super distracts me and makes this quite painful to watch. Maybe it just needs adjusting to turn the volume of that down
We did this in school and thats a fact.
Its true
welcome to the real world baby
oh yeah
I'm so confused what this means
Such great content!!
Great video Trevor!
helpful information

I would LOVE for you to make another one of these but shorter so it can be geared toward kids. I'd love for my students to watch this but its a bit long. EVer consider editing this down to 5 minutes for kiddos?
Check out Carol Dweck's stuff, I'm sure she probably has some kid friendly videos.

Can someone please tell me who they older man is. He is such a sweet heart.
Love it
wat een leuke mentorles
I have used this lately and works really good but than this brain between my ear starts to talk and say :"who do think u are? You make people around you look bad when you try so hard." how do i deal with this? Probably beliefs i got from my parents..
Very educative, opening up on business ideas for starters. Still trying to understand
I thought you were dead. Great video as always!
Innovative
I bet this is the only 18 minute TH-cam video that get started and finished by most watchers.
Hey just came across your channel - you're awesome! Keep it up (: Gotta support smaller creators! ☺️
Made 4 years ago. So late to the party. But better than never.
Thank you for publishing a inspirational, adequate, and awesome video. I'm not saying this due to my opinion, and for other's who've seen this, I hope they fill the same way, eventually.
I am, for which college, I'm at CTU.
Why is the Great British Baking Show music playing 11 minutes in?!!
In addition to having a positive motivation to achieve your requested goals, even in school, that facility worker should've also said, ''having a bit of integrity, as well.
What is a mindset
who wants to be friends?
Superb 👌 #TrevorRagan
Never say Never !!!!
Anybody in here from Math125 Bsu
👍🏽👍🏽
im 11
You know I might be cooked if since middle school I had pessimistic, self-loathing, fixed mindset, yikes!
H
That 10 y/o girl looks like 25 :0
Holy fuck is it just the fixed mindset in me or is the 10 years old talking extremely condescending? Like this is so easy a child can learn it but here I am struggling.
One thing, we don't need to overcome "the stories", we need to overcome "The Matrix", which is what the media and governments feed us. :)
I hate this health class
