Week 5 Review

One weekly announcement that caught my attention is the Growth Mindset post about embracing challenges. I am familiar with Dr. Dweck's work with children in fostering healthy learning experiences. However, this post resonates with me during this week in particular. I have been placed in positions of responsibility and leadership throughout the semester. From team projects to my management position at work, I have openly accepted such roles And even though the challenges sometimes seem overwhelming I try to remind myself that what I am trying to accomplish now is more worthwhile than simply avoiding the trouble and doing enough just to get by with school or work.
