Growth or Fixed?

From reading up on different mindsets, I've found that there are two main types; growth and fixed. The growth mindset is what most people have. It helps you to learn from your mistakes, leading to success. The fixed mindset is one where a person is stuck in their ways as either a good person or bad. But according to Guy Kawasaki, the reason these "fixed" people fail more often is because the "good ones" think they don't need to do anything, and the "bad ones" think there's nothing they can do to be better.
My mindset over this first week at CSUMB was mostly growth, and I'm sure that it will stay that way over the next couple of weeks. I've learned a lot from my classes and will do my best to continue to do so, so that I can succeed. I learned many things; directions, buildings, meeting people, making friends, classes, etc. A specific time I was in this growth mindset was in my technology class. I had never used or even heard of the websites my professor was taking us to but I picked it up quickly and now am fairly good at using them.
A time this week that I was in the fixed mindset was when I wanted to do my laundry. I was so irritated that the laundry machines were not as good as the ones I have at home and I gave up and just said I'd just do it later. Instead, I should have stayed and tried harder to learn a different way of doing my laundry to make the machines I have useful to me.
I'm excited to see where my growth mindset will take me over the next few weeks here at CSUMB!!!
