In a fixed mindset, people believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence or talent, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of develop-ing them. They also believe that talent alone creates success - without effort. They’re wrong.

In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work-brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learn-ing and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Virtually all great people have had these qualities.

Carol S. Dweck, 2006 Mindset: The New Psychology of Success.

"This could be a good time! There is a river now flowing very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they were being torn apart and will suffer greatly.

Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our

eyes open, and our heads above water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate! At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and our journey comes to a halt.

The time of the lone wolf is over.

Gather yourselves!

All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.”

To wrap it all up; this is the educational roller coaster you can envision, design,prototype, built, implement and ride, all at the same time, by ‘being in the moment’ accepting and celebrate the ‘here and now’, teachers and students together, at www.CheckitCenter.com.

Accept that there’s more than projects and intercultural exchange going on and that you will be tested on yin-&-yan principles like freedom and responsibility, action and meditation, failure and success.

“It’s not enough to just go, be there, experience it, make friends, do interesting things and have a good time. Although this is a life changing experience, it becomes educational when there is: reflection, reorganization, new thinking and meaning-making in your life and within the community (Check-IT) you belong.” ~ Tashi

I wish you ‘the Power to Flower’ :-)

Open your mindwww.vimeo.com/83588081

Change your perspective

We are now able to observe our-selves from a different perspec-tive. We are now capable to step out of our own mind, out of our own body and understand who we really are, to see things the way they are. We become the observer of our lives. We re-alize that we are not that which we notice but, the observer of what we notice.

2500 years ago, Lao Tzu (abt.551-479 BCE) was trying to teach us just that, was trying to teach us how to get to this last stage of life, this spiritual stage: “Can you step back from your own mind and thus under-stand all things? Giving birth and nourishing, having without possessing, acting with no expec-tations, leading and not trying to control: this is the supreme vir-tue.”
