JAMMU: “Your potential isn’t fixed; it expands with efforts, learning and belief in yourself”. With this opening statement Japleen Kour from Grade IXB alongwith her classmates conducted the morning assembly on the topic “Power of Growth Mindset” at JK Public School, Kunjwani.
Adding more substance to the transaction Agamjot Singh said, “Growth mindset is the belief that your abilities, intelligence and talents can be developed over the time through efforts, learning and persistence. It helps a person to become stronger and follow the way to success. Growth mindset helps us to learn from mistakes, and everything installs better versions of ourselves”.
“As John Wood once said, ‘Don’t be afraid of failures, learn from them. Filling a brain is just like filling a pot of water. To fill it you need to open the pot first. Don’t be an ocean of a salty water, be a river of flowing knowledge”, he added.
Arshpreet Kour presented the quote of the day, “Growth mindset helps us to convert, ‘I can’t’ into ‘I can learn'”.
To give vent to his poetic expression, Ananta Jyotirmaya Rana recited his poem:
They say life is a race –
Run fast, don’t delay,
But each time I tried,
I stumbled halfway.
Then came a thought,
Gentle yet wise:
“No effort is wasted –
Each fall helps you rise.”
So I gathered my strength,
Let go of my fear,
Found my voice,
Bold and clear.
I’ll stand out with purpose,
Let my spirit ignite,
And shape a mindset
That reaches new height.
Under the segment Quotations, Jai Singh quoted Henry Ford, “Whether you think, you can or you think you can’t, you are right”. Jaspreet Singh referred to Phillip Rider, “A positive mindset brings positive results”.
Muktesh quoted Carel Dweck, “A growing mind sees every challenge as a seat for transformation”.
Medhansh Verma referred to Tony Robins, “Power of growth mindset turns failure into fuel and efforts into excellence, it’s not about being the best, it’s about getting better every day”. Namisha Koushal quoted Albert Einstein, “Anyone who has never made a mistake, has never tried anything new”.
Applauding the presenters of the morning assembly, Principal JKPS Kunjwani Rajesh Rathore stated, “I urge you to remember: your abilities are boundless. Develop your growth mindset with effort, resilience, and the right attitude. Mistakes are not setbacks; they are stepping stones. Challenges are not threats; they are opportunities to grow stronger and wiser. So, keep learning, keep trying, and never be afraid to step outside your comfort zone. Let your journey be marked not by perfection, but by progress”.
