UNSCRIPTED Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Entrepreneurship ( PDFDrive )

The web is rife with inexpensive learning institutions (Ex: Udemy, Code Academy,
Lynda, Stanford Online) where new skills don’t require cash; they require a growth
mindset and a Kaizen commitment.
A growth mindset is how Josh Waitzkin goes from a chess champion to a
champion in martial arts. It’s how I go from knowing nothing about


programming to coding a web application. A growth mindset knows where
challenge lies and accepts the Kaizen Principle (and the process-principle) as part
of the build.
The Kaizen Principle is to endeavor to create tiny incremental improvements
in your daily life with an aim for mastery over performance, while forsaking
external comparisons, unless such comparisons inspire.
The three key operands
here are: 1) Tiny incremental improvements 2) mastery over performance and 3)
external comparison.
First, the only concerning metric is YOU. Have you done something today,
no matter how small, to improve whatever needs improving? Are you moving
the needle or action-faking? You are your only competition, and the process-
principle will drive that change.
Second, aim for mastery over performance: be the best at something YOU
can be. It is 100 percent YOU-oriented and not centered on performance or
competitive rankings. Mastery doesn’t care about how you are judged by others.
It’s only about “getting better” (you) over “being better” (others).
And third, refrain from comparing yourself to others, especially rock stars in
your field. If you’re aiming to improve your fitness and finished your first month
of training, it’s probably not a good idea to compare your bikini body to some
Instagram fitness model with three million followers. 
Comparison is the path to
perpetual misery
. There’s always someone richer, faster, hotter, fitter, or
whatever. And yeah, I also advise staying off Facebook so you’re not comparing
everyone’s highlight reels to your daily rigor. That is unless it inspires you.
And lastly, don’t believe your own press clippings. I get a ton of email
thanking me: a life changed, a fortune being made, or a paradigm being smashed.
It’s flattering but an invitation to a fixed mindset. These raves could wallpaper
my office, but ogling them implies, “I am successful” or “I’ve made it,” and both
suggest fixed permanence where I can sleep in, show up last, and leave first.
So, if Mom raves you’re the best thing since sliced bread, don’t believe it. If
coach says you’re the best quarterback he’s trained since Drew Brees, thank him,
smile, and ask, “How can I get better?” Through her breakthrough research,
Carol Dweck has give us a defense to a fixed-mindset while promoting its
antithesis: growth. Never praise talent or ability, either for yourself or for a child.
Instead, praise the process-principle. Praise improvements, habits, growth, and
efforts. Praise how far you’ve come, and one day, you’ll praise your results.


CHAPTER 20
BELIEF #3
THE CONSUMPTION SCAM:
HOW MUCH TIME DID THAT COST?
No society ever thrived because it had a large and growing class
of parasites living off those who produce.
