Hello!

Unlikely Gratitude:在其他，平凡，烦人或可怕的情况下寻找增长的机会。

For example: A few weeks ago, we met Leslie, a people-pleaser yoga teacher, and herSandpaper Person,一个难以理解的瑜伽学生。莱斯利不太可能的感谢是对自己和学生的性格不匹配。由于她的学生，莱斯利（Leslie）正在学习如何在学生对她的认可之外找到自己的价值。她将这种具有挑战性的局势作为成长的机会。

Illuminate: Cultivate Your Growth Mindset with Unlikely Gratitude

Have you heard of a“成长心态”?
In education circles, a growth mindset is defined as the student’s belief that intelligence can be developed through hard work, effective strategies, and support from others. The opposite would be a fixed mindset: When a student believes that, if he’s not born with intelligence, he will never be smart.研究后的研究研究proves the value of a student with a growth mindset; inone studyof nearly 170,000 students, those with a growth mindset werethree times比具有固定心态的学生更有可能在成就测试中得分高。

But the value of the growth mindset doesn’t end with the academic achievements of children.
我们所有人都可以将成功的可能性增加三倍，但是您选择通过培养成长心态来定义它。我们通过认为我们的技能不是固定的，我们培养这种方式与孩子的方式相同。通过艰苦的工作，有效的策略和他人的帮助，我们也可以在任何挑战中成长。培养成年成长心态的有效策略之一称为“Unlikely Gratitude.”

An example of Unlikely Gratitude:My friend, Alea, lives with anxiety. Right now, she finds herself in a time of a lot of uncertainty. This uncertainty understandably heightens her anxiety, and she decided to identify the Unlikely Gratitude of her situation: Because her anxiety is heightened, she has more ground to better understand it. She’s using this opportunity to reach out to a therapist, put more of her attention toward mitigating her anxiety, and find new strategies for working with her anxiety.

Next, you will cultivate your growth mindset by identifying the Unlikely Gratitude in your own challenging situation.
