Mindset And The Vocabulary We Use Each Day
Mindset, abundance, and the language we use with ourselves are all deeply connected. Here's a concise breakdown to help you reflect on it more clearly:
đź’ Mindset: Fixed vs. Growth
Your mindset shapes how you interpret the world. Carol Dweck popularized two types:
- Fixed Mindset: Believes abilities and intelligence are static. Leads to avoidance of challenges and fear of failure.
- Growth Mindset: Sees abilities as developable. Encourages effort, resilience, and learning.
What you tell yourself becomes your internal reality.
🌱 Abundance vs. Scarcity Thinking
- Scarcity Mindset: Believes there’s never enough—time, money, opportunities. Leads to comparison, hoarding, and fear.
- Abundance Mindset: Believes there’s more than enough. Opens the door to generosity, creativity, and collaboration.
Example:
Scarcity says, "If they succeed, I lose."
Abundance says, "Their success proves what’s possible for me, too."
🗣️ The Power of Self-Talk and Vocabulary
The words you speak—especially to yourself—can build you up or break you down.
Disempowering phrases:
- “I can’t…”
- “I’m not good at…”
- “I always mess this up.”
Empowering alternatives:
- “I’m learning how to…”
- “This is challenging, but I’m growing.”
- “Mistakes help me improve.”
Tip: Catch your language in the moment. Reframe on the spot. You don’t have to fake positivity, just aim for honesty with hope.
đź§ Why This Matters
Your subconscious mind doesn’t filter sarcasm or self-criticism—it takes your words as truth. If you constantly tell yourself you’re not capable, your actions will align with that belief.
Instead, try:
- Daily affirmations grounded in truthful optimism.
- Gratitude journaling to train your brain toward abundance.
- Intentional pauses to reflect and rephrase your thoughts.
