Growth mindset is the belief that our abilities can be developed through dedication, reflection, and effort. One way to cultivate a growth mindset is through a strategy box exercise. This exercise prompts you to identify your achievements, reflect on the strategies that led to these successes, and apply these strategies to future goals.
Deciding when—or whether—to go back to college as a working adult can be tough. Here are some questions to help you make the right choice for you.
Consider your responses to the above questions about your motivation, time, energy, flexibility at work, finances, and learning preferences. Are you in a place with those resources that make school realistic for you right now? Think also about whether you have your ducks in a row at school, such as unblocking any holds on your student account and a clear sense of which requirements you’d need to meet to graduate. Then, ask yourself whether you have what you need to succeed or whether you still have work to do. This can help you determine your timeline on returning.
