I'm about to publish an Ezine article about post-divorce dating, so I'm giving a sneak preview here.
The focus is using a different
mindset when you consider the perils of dating.
I'm encouraging the
growth mindset. Doesn't that sound all grown up and adult? It's about thinking more positively about your abilities and knowing that when you put enough effort into something, you're bound to succeed. We won't belabor the
fixed mindset, which, as you can imagine, isn't quite as productive. It's the one where you think you'll never meet anyone, etc. NOT what we're looking for.
For the growth mindset, keep in mind:
- Effort leads to success - Join
Facebook or
Match.com
- Learn from mistakes - Why didn't that guy ask me out?
- Stay positive - I know I can figure out how to survive a date
- Seek out feedback - What's wonderful about me (or not so much?)
- Take the plunge! - In the words of a famous sneaker, JUST DO IT!
For more on mindset, look at the book or read my newsletter
