What does mindset represent for you? Last week I reflected on 5 meaningful elements of my own mindset.
-
Curiosity: xFeeding my curiosity is central to continuously learning.
-
Relationships: To me relationships compound like knowledge and money does, so it is worthwhile nurturing long term relationships of value.
-
Mentorship: Putting the ego aside and being open minded to being coachable is important when learning from the lessons of others.
-
Values: Guiding principles are central to making smart decisions on a consistent basis.
-
Reflecting: Keeping a journal, receiving feedback, looking back and connecting the dots is a healthy way for me to learn from both my mistakes and interactions with the world.
I would love to hear more about what core things you hold onto as a part of developing your own winning mindset. Just hit reply! Have a productive week!
