Why I did it: Actually, I love TEDx, specially a site
for personal self growth. Sometimes these talks can
be very long and I may not have the time to listen or
that after I listen I want to print out a set of
summary slides for future reference.
I am hoping that this summary resource will be
useful to you and my base of 10,000+ and counting
readers in your journey of self growth.

About Speaker: Eduardo Briceno
Eduardo re-discovered the joy of learning during his teenage
years, when his family moved from Caracas, Venezuela to
Tulsa, Oklahoma, and he landed in a foreign land, with
different customs and a great school. Since then, learning
has been a central source of joy and fulfillment.
Eduardo went on to earn B.S. in Economics and B.S. in
Chemical Engineering degrees at UPenn, and later MBA and
M.A. in Education degrees at Stanford. Most important, he
continues to love learning outside school, and keeps a large
personal repository of lessons learned, knowing that
otherwise he will remember less than 20% of what he
deems important, and finding the process of writing things
down to be helpful.

8. Introduction
What do you think is the key to
achieving our goals, our success? Some
people suggest things like hard work,
focus, persistence.
But research shows these are all by
products of something else —
something much more powerful that we
can all develop. It is this very special
something that really is critical to
success.
9. Who has achieved great success…
Someone who has achieved great
success is Josh Waitzkin, a chess
international master and the subject of
the movie Searching for Bobby Fischer.
Nobody has won all the national chess
championships that Josh has, but even
more impressive, when he turned 21 he
took on the challenge mastering
something completely new and very
different from chess — Marshall Arts.
10. The greatest thing that ever happened..
He realized that he had learned how to grow and succeed, and
he could apply that understanding to other domains. And so,
he devoted himself relentlessly to Tai Chi Chuan, and after lots
of hard work, many failures and some broken joints, he
became a great martial artist and he won two World
Championships. Now he's off to jui-jitsu.
So what does Josh say is the greatest thing that ever
happened to him? Believe it or not, he says losing my first
national chess championship because it helped me avoid
many of the psychological traps.
11. Different mindsets …
Some people see intelligence or abilities as fixed — what is called the fixed
mindset. While other people see them, as qualities that can be developed — a
growth mindset.
These two different mindsets lead to very different behaviors and results.
Results showed that the students with a growth mindset — those who thought
they could change their own intelligence —increased their grades overtime, while
those with the fixed mindset did not. You can see the trend; the gap in
performance just widens and widens over time. The difference between these two
groups: a different perspective on intelligence.
12. So how does a growth mindset do that?
But the key insight that I would like you to
walk away with today is that when we
realize that — when we realize that we can
change our own abilities, when we have a
growth mindset — we bring our game to
new levels.
So how does a growth mindset do that? It
turns out that there are physiological
manifestations to mindset.
13. Consequences of mindset…
There are other consequences of mindset.
People with a fixed mindset see effort as a
bad thing, something that only people with
low capabilities need. While those with a
growth mindset see effort as what makes us
smart, as the way to grow.
And when they hit a setback or failure, people
with a fixed mindset tend to conclude that
they're incapable, so to protect their ego, they
lose interest or withdraw.
14. We can change mindsets
Another study that showed that we can change mindsets is one in which Dweck
and Blackwell did a workshop with 7th graders to instill a growth mindset in them.
As a result of the workshop, the students gained more interest in learning and they
work harder — and as a result of that, their grades improved.
Other studies have shown that when we teach a growth mindset not only does it
improve achievement for students as a whole, but it also narrows the achievement
gap because the effects are most pronounced for the students who face negative
stereotypes, such as minority students and girls in math.
15. Consequences of mindset…
I’ve spoken mostly about children but mindset
affects all of us. In our workplaces, managers with
fixed mindsets don't welcome feedback as much,
and they don't mentor employees as much. And
employees with growth mindsets about specific
skills like negotiations become far better at those
skills than people with fixed views. Mindsets can
even help both solve big social issues.
16. Knowledge about the growth mindset ..
There's a lot that we can do to change mindsets. But here are three things that any
of us can do to instill a growth mindset in ourselves and those around us.
First, recognize that the growth mindset is not only beneficial but is also supported
by science.
Second, learn and teach others about how to develop our abilities. Learn about
deliberate practice and what makes for effective effort. When we understand how
to develop our abilities.
And third, listen for your fixed mindset voice, and when you hear it, talk back with
a growth mindset voice. If you hear “I can't do it,” add “yet.” My request you today
is that you share this knowledge about the growth mindset with your family,
friends, and schools so that all of us can go and fulfill our potential.
