Show Notes
Spirit is Changeless Reality. That which we call personality is the instrument through with Spirit operates. But Spirit can operate for the individual only by operating through him/her. The degree to which we open ourselves to that activity is the degree to which we experience shifts and changes toward our desired outcome.
The view we adopt for ourselves determines the way we lead our lives. With a fixed mindset, we believe that our qualities are permanent, unchangeable. This creates an urgency to prove ourselves over and over again. But with a growth mindset, we believe our basic qualities can be cultivated through our efforts. We can grow through application and experience, through years of passion, toil, and training.
Why waste time proving over and over how great we are when we could just get on with self-improvement?
