    Most people don't even realize that they have a fixed mindset in regards to their mental health. A fixed mindset can keep you stuck feeling depressed or anxious. In this video you’re going to learn how to tell if you have a growth or a fixed mindset, how to develop a growth mindset in regards to mental health. And why having a growth mindset can completely change how you feel about your mental health.
    Carol Dweck, the author of Mindset (which this video is based off of) said “In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work - brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.”

    In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.

    I really wish you would (if you haven't already) do a video about elderly depression. Those of us in our elderly years have lives that are winding down due to degeneration of physical abilities, sometimes diminishing mental capabilities, and lower amounts of emotional energy. Some of us suffer from depression, loneliness, multiple illnesses, and sometimes poverty. When we're old and tired, what can we learn that will help us in the last years of our lives as they continue to narrow and wind down?

      This is the perfect time for you to try and apply having a growth mindset. Knowing you are in this situation, what can you do to improve on your current state? What are the things you can do to be happier? How can you be productive emotionally and be happy even at an old age?
      I know it’s not easy but that’s how growth mindset works. Putting in effort to grow and improve even at an old age. I know a 90 year old who fell in love in painting and it makes him happy everyday knowing that he can still improve everyday 😊

      Thanks for posting this comment, Helen! I've borne witness to some deterioration in the health of my parents and grandparents recently, and it makes me wonder about how to support them/other elderly around me in their old age, and has really made me aware of the mental health of our elderly. When I'm in the twilight years of my life, I want to know what I can do to help myself manage the associated life changes, be they philosophical, mental, physiological - or any of it/some combination! I want to know how to help my kids be prepared for my own experience, my parents' experience, and their experience as elderly people (assuming I ever have kids).
      These are things that were briefly mentioned when I was growing up (in the vein of elder discrimination), but never something discussed deeply (mental health and support of our elderly population), and it's still not something that gets discussed. This is such an important issue, and one that many or most of us will face. For the sake of our loved ones, I'm so glad you bring it up. I hope you're doing well - thank you again for your comment and for mentioning this really important topic.

    Thank you so much for referring to artists and painters as not just having "talent". My husband is a painter who dedicates 12 hours per day at times to draw and perfect his fine art. The problem is, most people become incredibly jealous that they cannot succeed in the same regard because they won't put that same amount of time in. It is so difficult for people to understand how much time and discipline that takes.

      I was an art student early on in college, and I had a classmate who used to say this all the time. I doubted him, then, but the more I learn about how people work, the more I know he was right! I thought I or others had some "natural talent" but really, I just spent a lot of time when I was younger practicing and improving without realizing that I was practicing! I'm sure it's the same for other "naturals" in many other areas.

    PSA- A growth mindset does NOT say that you're not allowed to deal with emotions. If you feel sad, you don't have to REPLACE it with an 'Oh, what can I learn from this?' mindset. Rather, you have to accept that you're feeling sad, move on, deal with it, and THEN ask yourself if you can learn anything from the situation that happened. And a BIG percentage of times, you can't learn anything from it, you can just move on.
    *TL;DR- Don't make your growth mindset a coping mechanism, deal with your emotions fully.*

    I've experienced anxiety and depression since I was 13 and I've always blamed and hated myself for it because its felt like there is something wrong with me. Recently I put together that I may have gotten some form of ptsd as a toddler after an incident happened and I was injured. In a study I read with a similar case study, a little boy ended up a little developmentally behind than his peers on the emotional front.
    I guess it dawned on me how little control we have on how our environment and experiences shaped our brains - now it's our present self who has to live with the effects of all the accumulated stuff...and though it is hard every day i am choosing to stay patient with myself and learn the art of self forgiveness, love and care. It's taken me a long time to even get to where I am today.

    Ironically, this creates both a positive and negative feedback loop. those with a fixed mindset will believe they are incapable of adopting the growth mindset, while those who have a growth mindset will have an easier time embracing the fact that growth with the right mindset is possible. It's taken me so long to break this negative feedback loop.

    When I want to get better at something, I pick a certain amount of minutes per day to work on it and I generally work on it around the same time of day (morning or evening) so that it's routine. Even if I don't feel like doing it that day I still do it, as long as its feasible. Four days a week minimum, but six days is preferable, depending on what it is. I keep this routine up for several months at least. Because growth doesn't happen in days or weeks. Problem in general is, when you spend your day at work, your time is limited, because you need to set aside time to relax and sleep as well. With those restraints, you can only pick one or two things to grow in at a time. So you really need to be decisive in the areas you want to grow. You can't do everything, and in fact, as one person you can only do very little. So you need to be decisive in what you want to do, realizing this limitation.

For example, I have the mindset that I am flexible and can change but my partner cannot. So then I take on the mindset that our relationship is doomed. I start to look for things that my partner does that prove he's an xzqx!?% which reinforces that the relationship is doomed.

So I failed and failed and faiied. And then stoped caring about my maths classes so I can push away my fear. I had to do 7th grade again because of my bad grades. But then I got good grades, I already knew the binomial formula and I began to have kind of fun. I made extra exercises and my teacher also supported me and gave me some books.
    But it was years later I understood that there is no such thing as talent. It all depends on motivation, fun, efford and time. Well, I wouldn't say, that my parents harmed me but it is sad that they just wanted to calm me and make me feel better and caused the exact opposit

    I read the book a few weeks ago and I'm learning to have a growth mindset. I didn't know I had a fixed mindset and it hold me from growing. I used to try to look smart, I feel good when I think that I'm better than someone, now I know that it's all about being better, not being the best.
    Thank you, Emma. I'm learning English by watching your videos, and I learn about psychology at the same time. I've changed a lot since I watched your videos.

    Do you ever consider doing a mental health anonymous. Like a group therapy via zoom. Something where everyone can pay an amount for a session(basically based on a few hours) and then a link is sent to them for a zoom chat. In these times where fear is all over the place and our minds need to recuperate I think this would be very helpful. It’s like a therapy session for those who can’t afford the actual monthly costs of a therapist. Yet knowing others are out there just like them trying to regain their mental health.

    I think a growth mindset is why sometimes people who struggle with something (like talking to people) can be motivated to do something like a challenge where you talk to as many people as you can. It's a challenge, so it's supposed to be difficult at first; it allows you to be okay with that initial difficulty and gives you an automatic frame to work through things. Without that frame of it being a "challenge," people expect that they should already be able to do "normal" things like talk to people so any difficulty means they failed.

    The VA has PTSD programs that help war veterans with all kinds of emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. I came back from Iraq with PTSD, and went to3 different programs at the VA. Therapy and in a Nutshell would be excellent for veterans with PTSD. Seems like the VA only helps with the surface of emotions but not deep. i still have issues with my anger, I don't have close relationships with friends, not married, and I have too much anger to keep a job. Therapy in a Nutshell just popped up, and I love it!! God is helping many through people like this Lady.

    I was told by a counselor A few times and I keep reminding myself of it when I get frustrated if things don’t go as I planned or hoped. He said, “God looks at our efforts, not our results.” Meaning; do the best you can in each moment and understand that failures will happen, but keep trying and don’t give up, as in don’t just totally quit. My best on one day might not be as good as my best on another day. Even though this world expects perfect performances all the time, God only asks for our best efforts to do what brings us closer to Him. After all, Heaven is our true and forever home. Everything earthly is just temporary, except Love. True Love is carried and carries us into eternity.

    Thank you, this content is very helpful! I love how you reference that telling an artist "you're so talented" is like an invalidation of that artist skill set. Yes, we are gifted with skills such as art, but we have to put in the work of becoming the best stewards we can be of that gift of talent. Otherwise a treasure we are given becomes trashed. There really are always good options to seek for help, you have to be able to do work though. Even a tiny kitten size step of effort is better than no effort made at all.
