00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.399
<v Speaker 1>Yo, what's up, fam Zaiden Cruz. Here your weekly dose

2
00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:06.320
<v Speaker 1>of real talk about surviving this crazy gen Z world.

3
00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:09.720
<v Speaker 1>This week, we're diving deep into goal setting, but not

4
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:13.039
<v Speaker 1>that basic write down ten things you want achieve kind

5
00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:16.600
<v Speaker 1>of stuff. Nah, we're getting real about those mindsets you

6
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:19.719
<v Speaker 1>feel me because the truth is most of us are

7
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:22.359
<v Speaker 1>stuck in this loop of setting goals we can't even reach,

8
00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 1>then spiraling into self doubt and disappointment, like ever felt

9
00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:30.719
<v Speaker 1>that crushing weight of I should be further along by now? Yeah,

10
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I've been there too, trust me. It's a vibe killer.

11
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>But here's the thing. You can rewrite your brain, my friends,

12
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:40.920
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about switching from this fixed mindset where you

13
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>believe your talents and abilities are set in stone, to

14
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:46.600
<v Speaker 1>a growth mindset. Think of it like leveling up in

15
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:50.119
<v Speaker 1>your favorite video game. With a growth mindset, every challenge

16
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:52.920
<v Speaker 1>is just an opportunity to learn, adapt, and become a

17
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:56.280
<v Speaker 1>baddy version of yourself. So what's the tea on this

18
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:59.560
<v Speaker 1>whole growth mindset thing. Here are five key takeaways that

19
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>will toe totally blow your mind. One, Embrace those freaking mistakes.

20
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know nobody likes screwing up, but here's

21
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:10.120
<v Speaker 1>the truth. Failure is not the opposite of success. It's

22
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:13.359
<v Speaker 1>a stepping stone to it. Every time you trip and fall,

23
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:15.959
<v Speaker 1>you learn something new about yourself and how to bounce

24
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>back stronger. Just look at Elon Musk. Dude started with

25
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:22.519
<v Speaker 1>flame throwing rockets and now he's shooting people into space.

26
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:27.079
<v Speaker 1>Talk about growth. Two. Challenge those limiting beliefs. You know,

27
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>those little voices in your head that whisper you can't

28
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:33.719
<v Speaker 1>do this or it's too hard. Yeah, they're liars, straight

29
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 1>up haters. When you catch yourself thinking those negative thoughts,

30
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:42.319
<v Speaker 1>call them out. Say nope, not today, negativity. Instead, focus

31
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>on what you can control and build your confidence brick

32
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:48.840
<v Speaker 1>by brick. Three, get comfortable being a beginner. We live

33
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:52.319
<v Speaker 1>in this culture obsessed with instant gratification, but real growth

34
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>takes time and effort. Remember that feeling when you finally

35
00:01:55.799 --> 00:01:57.959
<v Speaker 1>mastered a dance move or beat a tough level in

36
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:01.079
<v Speaker 1>a game. That's the magic of starting from scratch and

37
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:05.040
<v Speaker 1>putting in the work. Four. Seek out those growth minded peeps.

38
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:08.919
<v Speaker 1>Surround yourself with people who believe in you. Encourage your ambitions,

39
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>and celebrate your progress, no matter how small they'll be.

40
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Your hype squad cheering you on every step of the way.

41
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:18.960
<v Speaker 1>And hey, even if it's just your dog, they're always

42
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:22.759
<v Speaker 1>down to be your biggest fan. Five. Celebrate those wins,

43
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.879
<v Speaker 1>big and small. Don't wait for some massive achievement to

44
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:29.520
<v Speaker 1>pat yourself on the back. Acknowledge those many victories along

45
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:32.080
<v Speaker 1>the way. Finishing a chapter of that book you've been

46
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:35.319
<v Speaker 1>meaning to read, nailing that presentation at work, or even

47
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.039
<v Speaker 1>just gang out of bed in the morning. Every little

48
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:40.759
<v Speaker 1>win is a step forward. Now, let me tell you

49
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.039
<v Speaker 1>about someone who truly embodies the growth mindset my man,

50
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.879
<v Speaker 1>Billie Eilish. This girl didn't just pop up out of nowhere.

51
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>She started making music when she was a kid, constantly

52
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:55.599
<v Speaker 1>experimenting with sounds and styles. She faced criticism, doubters, and

53
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>those classic teen struggles. But guess what, she kept pushing forward,

54
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:03.199
<v Speaker 1>learning from every experience, and eventually became one of the

55
00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:06.879
<v Speaker 1>biggest music icons in the world. Think about it. Billy's

56
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>story is proof that you don't need to have everything

57
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 1>figured out right away. It's about embracing the journey, those

58
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:15.879
<v Speaker 1>messy moments included and using them as fuel for growth.

59
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 1>She wasn't afraid to be different, to experiment and to

60
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 1>keep evolving, and that's what sets her apart from everyone else.

61
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:27.159
<v Speaker 1>So here's the bottom line. Ditch that fixed mindset, embrace

62
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.319
<v Speaker 1>the journey, and remember you are capable of achieving anything

63
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:33.639
<v Speaker 1>you set your mind to. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

64
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.599
<v Speaker 1>Now go out there and make some magic happen. Hit
