Comp Review Reflection Journal Post

 This post was made after watching a Ted talk. This was made to show the difference our attitudes can make in our day-to-day life. 

Fixed vs growth mindset. Fixed run from errors and mistakes. Growth gets excited about new things and hard challenges. Parents teaching kids to be shy and scared of things. Most people in the newer generations cant do anything without getting a reward or being praised.

People with a growth mindset are more likely to retain knowledge and improve their brain function.

Reflection

This piece of work is over my whole experience in my comp class. This covers my feelings and my new knowledge that it has given and helped me developed. During my composition semesters I wrote 3 major papers. The first one was a hometown narrative. It had to be something that impacted me during my life to this day. My process for this assignment was very much in my head. I had trouble thinking about what I wanted to write about. My life had pretty much been basic, and I felt as if I had nothing to write about.
