GROWTH MINDSET


What is one step you can take to develop a growth mindset?

The human mind is dynamic, sometimes we change our decisions and plans abruptly due to the influence of our surroundings and how strong are we to protect our own thoughts. It’s not bad if it’s for us to grow but most of the time we embrace wrong decisions in our lives that can cause us heartbreaks. This is commonly happening for the youth nowadays, my generation. Because our hearts and minds are fragile, young, and easily persuaded. Once that we are broken, it can be a loss of soul. 

 Just a few of the youth nowadays who can understand pains as a challenge for growth because the happenings in the world itself are too much for them to carry. In a world full of negative vibrations there is hope. All you need to do is to find it and have it within you. Having hope is the key to a growth mindset. But where to find it? Where to get it? And who can help? 

For some people learning is easy because they have a growth mindset. But for others, learning is hard because of different causes, it can be because they are hurt so much reason why they are afraid to step up. We cannot blame people of who they are, we cannot conclude about them because we don’t know what is happening to their private life. They are stocked of where they are, growth is inviable for them because of lack of motivation, loss of inspiration and hope. These people need help, and what we can do is to motivate them and be one of their inspiration in life, make them feel that in their battle they have allies. 

 But how we can motivate them? As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, we need to introduce the Gospel. The Gospel of Christ can soften a hardened heart not abruptly but little by little it can humble someone’s heart and soul. This is the number one step to develop a growth mindset, learning by doing the Gospel of Christ. 

 I’ve been in the situation where I was broken and afraid to step up, I feel like I am in a cage, I cannot get out of the loneliness and pain. Some may say I am very dramatic, but it’s true and we all have dramas in life. We are not just comfortable in sharing because it’s still inside us. It’s like cancer that kills us softly. It feels like there is no hope in this world all you can see is pain and war, a war against other people and war against yourself. I am blessed because of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that the missionaries have shared with me, it changed my life. The missionaries motivate me by sharing the Gospel, they became my friends, supporters, and inspiration. Through the Gospel of Christ, I found hope, I found the strength to go on in this struggled life. I found Joy which enlightens my wholeness as a child of God. The journey wasn’t easy, but I survived because I knew some people are with me to press forward with a steadfastness in Christ. Right now, as a young single adult, I am determined of the things I should do to be the best man that I can be.

Things happen for a reason, right now we can’t bring back what has been lost but we can start to build it again through the power of Christ the Lord thy God. Just let Him be and the Holy Spirit to guide. Hardened not thy mind and heart, seek thee growth by the light of Christ.

Ghajini: Reflection

We really cannot predict what will happen in our lives the next day. If you are at the upper part of the wheel you cannot say that you'll stagnantly stay there because wheels turn and that' s the best description of life. Always put in your mind that there are always two sides of a coin it emphasizes that all things under the sun have always an opposition, It's between the bad and the good. But after all, God gave us the freedom to choose and gave us the intelligence to decide what are the right things to do. And that is the movie " Ghajini " all about. You will learn to the story that there are decisions that we know it's the right thing to do but as we move on we'll realize that we've thrown a gas into something that is burning. On the other side, you can appreciate how the decision will come out naturally in our minds to do good things. The character of Aamhir Khan " Sanjay "tickled my heart. He was a kind of a man who bo...

HEAVENLY FATHER

Sometimes we wonder if God really exists, we always question His existence in times of our trials that we always say, ‘if there is God why I am suffering all of this agony in my life’. Brothers and sisters, I testify that there is God. Look around you, you can see many beautiful things, in the land, in the water, and in the sky. What a beautiful creation, right? And everything of these is perfectly designed by God. Think about the galaxy, the constellation of stars, and how perfectly our planet earth designed. All we have is theory on how these planets were created, and no one can prove that the universe's existence has naturally occurred. Like the great things we made here on earth, we designed something, we create something because we have this God-given knowledge to put something into existence. Our activities here on earth are enough to prove that there is only one God, who designed, planned and put all the living and all great things into existence. Our Heavenl...

See the Good

               I believe in prophets and leaders and revelations they received, but sometimes I doubted them not only the leaders of higher ranking but also local leaders of the church. This doubt has led me not to trust some leaders of the church and at some point, it had affected me in doing my responsibilities as a member such as paying my tithes, fulfilling my callings, and my personal progress. It’s disappointing when you see leaders who are misled by their personal desire. Sometimes I even doubted if our church is a true church of Jesus Christ because of them.   I talk to one of my classmates in the institute about it and she said sometimes it is easier to see mistakes than good works. I sometimes tell people what she said, and I never told it to myself, hearing from a friend those words have galled me in a positive way, it is so strong. It came in my mind that we are not perfect, even the prophet is still only a human and it is ...
