Mindset is an elusive and difficult to define concept. I see it as a summation of one’s views and assumptions about oneself and others. It is fluid and can be circumstance specific.

It is a topic of import because mindset can influence success and outcomes in almost all facets of our lives. Whether it is a new job, a deadline, a business or entrepreneurial endeavor, weight loss, conflict resolution, financial goals, or being a multitasking parent--developing a positive mindset can be predictive of and conducive to success.
