Reflect, Reset, Rise: A Simple Guide to Mindset

 

Hey loves! Hope you’re having a great day.

Our mindset is the internal lens through which we view every challenge and opportunity. To live with intention—and avoid accidental mental chaos—we must understand and regularly reflect on these mental frameworks.

The Big Two

  • Growth vs. Fixed: Growth sees abilities as muscles to be built; Fixed assumes you’re just born with what you’ve got. One sees a challenge as a "level up," the other as a personal attack.
  • Abundance vs. Scarcity: Abundance knows there is enough success for everyone; Scarcity treats life like a game of musical chairs where someone else's win is your loss.

The Daily "Pulse Check"

Daily reflection is like checking your teeth for spinach before a big meeting. It acts as a "micro-adjustment" that keeps you off autopilot. Try asking yourself these 3 quick questions each night:

  1. The Learning Curve: What did I learn today?
  2. The Reaction Check: When did I feel "stuck" in my thinking?
  3. The Small Win: What is one thing I’m proud of?

The Yearly "Season Finale"

While daily checks keep you in your lane, a year-end review is your strategic "Director's Cut." It allows you to:

  • Identify Plot Holes: Spot recurring habits that keep tripping you up.
  • Roll the Highlight Reel: Celebrate how far you’ve actually come.
  • Script the Sequel: Set a mental "theme" for the new year rather than just a boring list of tasks.

"Reflection is the bridge that turns life experience into wisdom."

By prioritizing reflection, we empower ourselves to evolve. No matter your goals, your mindset is the most powerful tool you own—remember to give it a "software update" every now and then!
