Blind Spots – We All Have Them
By: Ana Melikian | Posted in: Podcast Episodes | Thursday, Oct 30, 2014 - 9:45amI received touching comments from Episode 4 where I focused on Carol Dweck's book, “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success.”
Here are a few:
“If you ever wanted to make a difference in the world, you certainly did change my world with this podcast.”
“What a great topic, Ana. I've read Dr. Dweck's book and it really had a positive impact in my life.”
“I started believing something very different, that this is a skill set that I can build with practice and intention.”
Learning about Growth and Fixed Mindset makes a difference, mainly when we realize that we have a growth mindset overall, yet a fixed mindset in certain critical areas. These fixed mindsets, of which we are usually unaware, stop us from being “So Good They Can't Ignore You” (could not resist the plug to Episode 5 about this other wonderful book ;).
All of us have these blind spots. That’s normal.
We are not aware of them until someone, or something forces us to see what we don’t see them.
Did you know that you have a visual blind spot in your eye?
