According
to Wikipedia.org, a mindset is a set of assumptions, methods, or notations held
by one or more people or groups of people. In my opinion, mindset is simply “how
we think on things”. While some experts may list the top ten of mindsets, I
believe there are unlimited kinds of mindsets in the real world.
To
be very honest, “thinking” is one of my hobbies. As I continue to like it, I
discovered that there are some mindsets that I mostly use. Creative and
positive mindsets are two mindsets that I mostly use in dealing with real life
matters. Unfortunately, to have a creative and a positive mindset does not
necessarily means that you are a creative and positive person, because the
mindsets need to be implemented at the first place before becoming what we are called
“character” of the person.
As
any other things in our life, “thinking” might bring negative and positive
results. As far as I learned, too creative thinking might be end up in imagination.
Einstein has a good saying about imagination, he said that “logic can take you
from A to B, Imagination can take you anywhere”. But I believe that the saying
is not complete yet, because if you do it carelessly imagination can take you
nowhere.
While
I write this essay, my mind is full of “thinking”, full of mindsets. I try to
understand how my brain works. As time goes by, I suddenly realize that maybe I
develop a new kind of mindset, a reflective mindset. Reflective mindset is one
of the most difficult parts of thinking. Because you will analyze yourself,
analyze why you are you.
Having
that in mind, in the next twenty-four hours, I would like to be more grateful
in my life. Because I believe that being grateful is the most effective way to
develop the reflective mindset. More importantly being grateful hones your
“ways of thinking” holistically.
