Episode Synopsis

Often, it can seem like life is happening to you – and that can lead to a perceived lack of control. Challenges and obstacles come one after another, leading to even more chaos, and it’s enough to overwhelm just about anyone. But what if something as simple as your mindset could change that pattern? On this episode of FranklinCovey Education’s Realiteen Talks, hosted by High School Practice Leader Gary McGuey, a panel of teenage guest weighed in on the topic of mindset – and how the right attitude and approach could change your eventual outcomes. “Whenever I think of the power of mindset, I really just think about your mentality or the way you approach different situations,” one panelist said. “Whether that be approaching academic, athletics or other relationships. … [It’s] also your mindset of positive thoughts versus negative thoughts.” The mind is a powerful and influential thing, the panelists said. In fact, it can be one of largest factors, if not the biggest one, in determining success or failure in a given situation. Without a positive mindset, it’s hard to remain motivated in the face of adversity. Many outside factors can influence your mindset, from the way you were raised to past experiences or the particular environment you find yourself in. However, at the end of the day, it’s up to you to stay on top of your mental state and find the best way for you to remain strong and committed to a positive, powerful mindset.
