Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>One way to know we are winning or losing is to keep score, and we use numbers.<\/p>\n

Like in sports, when we\u2019re winning in life, we\u2019re scoring, and when we\u2019re not scoring or attaining our goals, we\u2019re losing. Hence, the importance of goals.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an outward indicator of our state of affairs, and it works. However, there is a more powerful scale.<\/p>\n

Growth is a different system. It measures what is happening within and affects your environment.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s possible to achieve goals outwardly as you wither inside. So, how do leaders make this shift? Here are four ways.<\/p>\n

Growth mindset, not fixed<\/p>\n

We live in times of massive changes, and one way to deal with changes at this level is through growth.<\/p>\n

It is the wrong era to insist on old ways, and refuse change. A fixed mindset could easily hinder your progress.<\/p>\n

The skill to mentally evolve as required is an absolute essential in modern culture. Beyond merely achieving goals, a growth mindset would take you further.<\/p>\n

Be teachable<\/p>\n

Effective leaders understand the importance of being mentally flexible. It means that you\u2019re open to other perspectives.<\/p>\n

You are teachable when you can discard your old ways of thinking and adopt an idea that works better. It\u2019s a sign of growth.<\/p>\n

You are willing to consider new information, and change when necessary. The goal paradigm teaches you to strive for results, but the growth paradigm teaches you to evolve as a person.<\/p>\n

Connect with growing people<\/p>\n

One way to successfully make the shift from goals to growth is to surround yourself with growing people. Those who appreciate the present, but proactively press into the future.<\/p>\n

These people want to be, do and have more. They genuinely seek the continuous refinement of their thinking and approach to life.<\/p>\n

Growing people are committed to continuous learning, and invest in it in a measure that matches their commitment.<\/p>\n

When you shift your focus from goal-obsessed people to those who are growth-focused, the difference is clear.<\/p>\n

Develop humility<\/p>\n

Here, you understand your limits, and therefore, are open and committed to continuous learning.<\/p>\n

You are not only about ego-boosting achievements, but allowing the process to shape you into a wholesome person.<\/p>\n

Humility also means being open to feedback. You won\u2019t always get it right, and someone knows better.<\/p>\n

Are you willing to admit to your limitations, listen and improve? The focus on goals alone inflates the ego, but a shift to growth develops the person as goals are achieved.<\/p>\n
