Growth Mindset

          Carol Dweck is known for being one of the world's greatest and best leading researchers who focuses her time in the motivational aspect of individuals. Her studies over the years have helped and showed that the reasoning behind why individuals succeed and the reasoning to why they do not. She has been featured on multiple platforms including The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The New Yorker, The New York Times, etc.
          Some of the growth mindset challenges that I would challenge either myself or friends to would be to receive and give feedback and use constructive criticism while learning from other students as well. Giving and receiving information and exchanging ideas can be a good idea to helping grow your ideas as well as other students' ideas and thought processes.
          I have never heard of Carol Dweck before watching this ted talks and videos of her talking about individuals and their motivational aspects. She did open up my mind to various ideas and thought processes while watching the videos and thinking about how all this applies in the real world. I feel like I will be more interested and intrigued to find out more about growth mindset and how I can relate to it as well as my surroundings as well as to my environment.

    Asha it is nice to know that challenges one faces while having growth mindset is how would you not take it in a wrong way and use the feedback and use the constructive criticism to better yourself than thinking negative of a person. Instead of causing drama it would have been way better if people would work on bettering themselves than gossiping about the person who gave them the feedback and for a change work on the criticism one gets.

I was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma and have lived there all my life up until I came to Norman for college four years ago. My parents are from India (born and raised) and moved to the United States of America a month after they got married. They had me two years later and then had my brother six years after me. They later gained their United States citizenship when I was in fourth grade and that is the year I knew what area I wanted to work in and have a career in when I grew up. From a very young age, I have wanted to play a major role in the health sciences center and field. I felt that and feel that people should be there for each other and in order to do so, I wish to play a big role in the health field and help people feel good and be okay.            I have a strong feeling that m

Week 3 Story: Derek or Finn

Image
          In tonight’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy, Meredith has to choose between Derek and Finn. Two really good candidates for two completely different reasons. She is having a hard time doing so because both men are so great and have different things to offer. The way she met both of them are super unorthodox but a great way to ideally meet your future soulmate(s). Meredith Grey met Derek one night at a bar and ended up kicking him out of her house the morning after due to having a little too much to drink the night before.            They found out that Meredith serves as an intern under Derek who is a neurosurgeon at Grey’s hospital which is named after Meredith’s widely known and famous mother who is now sick with Alzheimer’s. Meredith and Derek hit it off right from the start and are the couple that I have been rooting for like how Sita and Rama are meant to be. Although Finn may not be an exact replica or a doppelganger of Ravana, they do share some qualities on
