Which Mindset Do You Have Growth or Fixed Mindset

Your mindset can easily determine your success or failure depending if you have a Growth Mindset or a Fixed Mindset

Here is where the difference lies between those who are successful online and those who give up and most failures tend to blame the system or others but never themselves.

Growth mindset

Successful affiliate marketers soon realize that to be successful online there is a need to further develop their talents and skillset they may already have and even bring on new skillset along the way.

In order to do so, they know the only way forward is to be prepared through hard work and effort along the way.

This could mean learning new tasks such as going through the training given to them, reading more from other successful, or learning more from inspiring people in many fields that relate to your interest.

What About YOU

You don’t need to reinvent the wheel as the knowledge is already out there.

You just apply what is taught, and take positive action to make it happen in order to be successful.

You also know this will not happen overnight and all that is required is to have the right frame of mind and be prepared to continue to strive forward to reach your goals set in life.

Fixed Mindset

This is where the undoing of many wannabes comes into play.

Here the mind frame is fixed and as it is fixed one can not go further beyond the limit the belief system is created.

Most times this fixed mindset may be the upbringing throughout childhood, perhaps parents, school, or even friends.

At the start, they may want to be something in their life but others can quickly deflate this thinking pattern.

Have you heard the saying “You will never amount to anything”?

This can easily deflate the personal ego and after many years of hearing the same thing your mindset becomes fixed and you believe that there is no possible way of going forward in life as you once may have thought.

The fixed mindset person has now a belief that there is a limit to their learning.

“Can you teach an old dog new tricks” is another term that comes to mind?

So even though they feel within them they want to be successful when there are challenges faced and some can be tough, they easily feel this is hopeless and what people have been saying is right.

I will never amount to anything so might as well give up now and just live according to society’s pattern of thinking.

Which one are you?

The part you need to think about is which one are you going to be the one with the growth mindset and willing to take action and learn, and find ways to either go through or over those hurdles or obstacles.

Know that you won’t give up but will learn where necessary to overcome the obstacles before you.

You will also know that climbing a mountain will not be done quickly but slowly and steadily while learning and observing the pathway before you.

OR

Are you content to stay with the fixed mindset and just give up at the first obstacle or a few more obstacles along the way?

Two Things to Note Here:

1) Wealthy Affiliate Platform

As you are already a member of Wealthy Affiliate you already have that opportunity to advance much further than those not within this awesome platform.

You have the core training and added resources more so as a premium or premium plus member, along with all the support and help from your fellow members.

Don’t forget there are many members here with their own pieces of training and powerful blogs for you to read and learn more some that may be outside the box.

Take Partha’s posts they are usually outside the box but also powerful to help you gain further training and insight to increase your traffic and create more content apart from the core training.

This will get you thinking more outside the box yourself.

Here are a couple Partha gives to you out of his kind ahem heart.

Really certainly worth your time to learn and grow after all you are creating a growth mindset so this will help you further gain the added advantage over others not here within Wealthy Affiliate.

2) Obstacles Faced

If you faced one obstacle and overcame that this is the perfect time to realize you already overcame one you may have felt was impossible yet you did.

So kudos to you, know you are better than you may have realized.

No one said affiliate marketing was easy those that do are lying to you.

When you face another obstacle and you will along this long journey to success.

Remember you already did it once and you can certainly do it again.

Your limit to success is dependent on the growth mindset you create.

To achieve success, true success for years to come, you need to be willing to learn and know it will take some time and positive action to make it so.

How much time?

That depends on how strong you make your mindset to be.

Understand this:

There is no limit to learning more nor is the ability to increase your growth mindset.

That is why it is called growth it keeps growing as you learn more and the more positive action you take you will be better for it.

I will leave you with my favorite quote from a brilliant man in Dr. Wayne Dyer


This is your opportunity to change your Fixed Mindset to a better you with an ever increase Growth Mindset.

A totally terrific read as always Andre!

I like to believe that I have a positive growth mindset, no day is complete until I have learned at least one new thing.. but I do on occasion struggle with implementing what I have learned before moving on to something else! (and I do know what this is called)!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend my friend! :-)

You are welcome Nick and even doing one thing positive is growth yes there will be times of let's say procrastination but this presents us with a new opportunity to understand the reasons why fix or make adjustments and once more we are growing as a result.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend and may a brighter future present itself to grow along the way.

Andre

Absolutely spot on my friend, I wish you a very productive start to the new week! :-)

Thank you Nick and you do the same enjoy each day

Andre

I do try my best to do so Andre! :-)

That all you can do your best for the day.

Take care my friend

Andre :)

There are so many new challenges in life almost daily that I can't help have a growth mind set. My gosh, every time my phone upgrades at night I have to be willing to grow a bit to figure out new settings if I want to use the phone. Growth mindset undoubtedly.
Jim

Yes Jim the mind boggles with so many challenges just for the phones alone yet we overcome them learn new things and we continue to grow and go forward.

Andre

Hmmm, this is true! What am I? I have yet to find out…
Still have to decide on what my niche is…still have to learn more.
We shall see…

Well you said you have to learn more and are using your mind to think proper for a niche that already is the start to a growth mindset along the fact you may be thinking where you stand on the choices again a thinking pattern is there and not a fixed one

Enjoy your weekend

Andre

Oh that’s encouraging! I was in the baseball game with family last night, and “ what’s my niche?” obsessed my thoughts, the entire evening!
So, you categorized me under the “growth mind” is hopeful. 😊

I don't see your going anywhere on the downward spiral

Not yet…. ????

Nor should you be thinking of it either remember we are here to help and support along your journey as well.
You are only a question or Pm away to all.

Andre

Yeap 👍

Truely you have a lot going for you believe in your self and always go forward regardless if it is at a snails pace or faster just keep going forward as you deserve to be even better than you thought
Take care be well and keep on smiling

Andre

I am looking at my target ( which appears like a pinpoint from where I am right now). I am doing my training, at the same getting distracted as I read the chats. Quite entertaining, to say the least!

Best thing to do Maria is to turn off chats of close down WA while you have your website open and just work on that same with FB and other social media channels select a time you want to work on your post and avoid all other distractions
It part of planning your time which will help your immensely

Ok, I will try that! Thanks for the advice! Seriously, I am tons of ideas playing in my mind. Just don’t know which one to start working on. Enjoy your weekend!

Best way is to write down all your ideas before they get forgotten then take a moment and seriously look at what are your interests, your passions, look at what knowledge you have to share to others that will help them.
Bring your lists down to about three and figure out which one is the best where you can bring out the best in yourself.

.. GREAT article !!

thank you Patrick much appreciated.

Enjoy your weekend and have a positive week ahead
'Andre

You are welcome Frank and yes reaching the next level can also give your further momentum to do greater things.
