Every experience that we have in life is framed by our perception of that experience; we have the power to decide whether we are thriving or failing. When you face numerous setbacks, it can be easy to believe that you will never reach success, that it just wasn’t meant to be. This mindset, known as a fixed mindset, leads people to stubbornly decide that they have learned all that they could in life and reject further growth. Here, Suhit Amin and Kevin Beutler, both leading entrepreneurs in their respective industries, share their insights on the dangers of a fixed mindset.
Digital marketer and Owner of Saulderson Media Agency, Suhit Amin has achieved more in his 20 years of life than many people accomplish in a lifetime. Founded in 2018, Saulderson Media Agency specializes in creative and collaborative influencer marketing. Amin’s fresh perspective on the power of digital marketing has helped to make him a notable name in the industry. A self-made success within the digital world and beyond, Kevin Beutler specializes in fintech and the digitization of the financial sector. Based in Hamburg, Germany, Beutler is currently considered to be a thought-leader in the world of blockchain and digital currency.
Both Suhit Amin and Kevin Beutler agree that whether you succeed or fail depends on your mindset. Amin explains, “Your mindset is the steering wheel that decides your destination. Positivity and a willingness to keep learning will help you avoid the dangerous areas that a fixed mindset can take you to.” Kevin Beutler expands on this and adds, “By remaining open to new learning opportunities and embracing the growth mindset, you can ensure that your skillset is constantly evolving.”
Additionally, Suhit Amin also warns against the misconception that everyone reaches a point in their career where they are the best at what they do and have nothing more left to learn. He says, “There is always more to learn; forgetting this and holding onto a fixed mindset can make you appear arrogant rather than experienced.” Adding to this point, Kevin Beutler says, “Moreover, having a fixed mindset is often viewed as being stubborn about your conviction and not having any regard for others’ views. This could be a barrier that projects arrogance and keeps you from reaching your goals.”
Thus, according to Suhit Amin and Kevin Beutler, avoiding the pitfalls and dangers of a fixed mindset can ensure that true success will always be within your reach.
