In this article, A fixed mindset could be holding you back -- here's how to change it, I got a different perspective on feedback and how useful it is for getting people out of a fixed mindset and into a growth mindset. I have noticed how often, especially as children, we are not given honest, constructive feedback on our efforts, but rather a pat on the back and a push forward, despite not giving any clear direction. Professor Klein's connections with this phenomenon and how it hinders a growth mindset was eye-opening and I will be working on treating others with this in mind.
So if you expect feedback in order to get into a growth mindset, you have to know how to take negative feedback and use it positively, which is what the article How to Get Past Negativity Bias in Order to Hardwire Positive Experiences addresses. Taking feedback and using it positively can sometimes mean leaving your ego at the door, thinking rationally, and connecting negative language with a positive mental attitude.
