The person I choose pro this project is Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan or “MJ” as some people call him, is a famous pro basketball player. He has played for teams like the Chicago Bulls, and the Washington Wizards. He is an all around favourite, and has won many different medals and rewords.

Chicago Bulls Michael Jordan 1997.

I picked MJ because he didn’t always standout as the best, in fact he even got cut from his high school basket ball team. Unlike other basketball players that have fixed mindset he showed the grit and determination which proved he had a growth mindset. Yet, most surprisingly he became a fan favourite and a amazingly good basketball player. One thing he said that demonstrated Growth Mindset was “I can accept failure, everyone fails at something, but I can’t accept not trying”.  I think that it represents a growth mindset because he talks about Failure and how he has learned from it.

He inspired me to use my Growth Mindset because he proved to me that it is actually beneficial to have a Growth Mindset, and that when you put a lot of effort in to something it really pays of.
