“In a growth mindset, challenges are exciting rather than threatening. So rather than thinking, oh, I’m going to reveal my weaknesses, you say, wow, here’s a chance to grow.” ~ Carol DweckAs we become young adults, many of us are faced with a variety of daily challenges. These challenges provide us ALL with the opportunity to learn and grow individually. From the time we open our eyes in the morning, until the time that we close our eyes at night, we are forced to make choices that will ultimately determine our journey towards individual success. At the Pennsylvania Distance, some of these important choices include attendance in your live learning sessions, participation in these sessions, daily lesson completion, and communication with teachers outside of regularly scheduled sessions.
