The first of the growth mindset stances that we covered is resilience. Resilience is the ability to bounce back and recover from setbacks and failures. When you have trouble, you bounce back and try again. Imagine a ball floating in a pool. No matter how far down you push it, it will always come back to the surface. This is resilience. It is what allows us to persist, and without it learning something new is next to impossible.
Next we will learn how to build our resistance, including doing things that bring us joy, getting plenty of sleep, eating a balanced diet, staying active and practicing gratitude. For other ways to help kids build resilience, check out: Comments are closed.
