Growth Mindset: Growth Mindset Cats

I love this one mostly because of the picture of the cat's fur blowing in the wind but it's also a good reminder that sometimes change isn't a bad thing. In the more info tab, there were the lyrics from a Bob Dylan song that inspired the meme. I really liked the lines "May you have a strong foundation

When the winds of changes shift."

Honestly I just really liked the satisfied look on that cat's face. But, like the first picture, its inspiration in the form of a cat meme. The quote from Laura Ritchie's book that inspired this meme is fantastic and gave me a good boost to finish out this semester. Here is the quote, "Past experiences also influence a student's beliefs when approaching new projects, with positive experiences effectively building self-efficacy beliefs and negative experiences bringing them down. " - Fostering Self-Efficacy in Higher Education Students (2015).

He rubbed at them with the backs of his meaty hands. "Kumby, brother, the kingdom is under attack. We are at war. I need you fighting beside me," Rav said, clapping his brother on his enormous shoulder. Kumby, the giant, blinked again willing all of the grogginess out of his mind. "What wa...
