Mindset

“Mindset” 是名词,指一种建立在某些信念和价值观之上的心理框架。它决定了我们如何感知周围的世界,以及我们如何对各种情况做出反应。

  1. “To be successful in business, you need to have a growth mindset.” (要在商业上取得成功,你需要具备成长型思维。)
  2. “It’s difficult to change the traditional mindset of the older generation.” (要改变老一辈的传统观念是很难的。)
  3. “A positive mindset can help you overcome even the toughest challenges.” (积极的心态可以帮助你克服即使是最艰难的挑战。)

由 “mind”(头脑、思想)和 “set”(设置、固定)组合而成。

这是一个封闭式复合词,字面意思就是“思想的设定”。

斯坦福大学心理学家卡罗尔·德韦克(Carol Dweck)提出了著名的 “Growth Mindset”(成长型思维)和 “Fixed Mindset”(固定型思维)理论。成长型思维认为能力可以通过努力培养,而固定型思维则认为能力是天生的、不可改变的。

  • 近义词:mentality, attitude, outlook, perspective

直接看词:mind(思想)+ set(固定/设置)。就像电脑的设置(settings)一样,你的思想也有它的“预设模式”,这就是你的心态(mindset)。

“Two people faced the same problem: their small business was losing money. One had a fixed mindset and believed he just wasn’t good at business. He gave up. The other had a growth mindset; she saw it as a chance to learn new marketing skills. She worked harder and eventually turned her business into a success.” (两个人面临同样的问题:他们的小生意正在亏本。一个人有固定型思维,认为自己就是不擅长经商,于是放弃了。另一个人有成长型思维;她把这看作是学习新营销技能的机会。她更加努力工作,最终让生意取得了成功。)
