Mastering Your Mindset: Practical Exercises to Shift Your Thinking
Before we change our habits, careers, relationships, or future, we often have to change the story we tell ourselves about what is possible. This month’s First Friday Focus explores the powerful role mindset plays in personal growth, achievement, and reinvention. Whether your goal is to lead more confidently, learn a new skill, take the next step in your career, or simply stop getting in your own way, your mindset may be the key that unlocks the door.
What do Carol Dweck, Napoleon Hill, and James Allen all have in common? They each understood that our thoughts shape our actions—and our actions shape our lives. Join us as we explore how to recognize limiting beliefs, rewrite negative self-talk, and begin replacing “I can’t” with “I haven’t learned this yet.”
What is First Friday Focus?
Every month, EBR’s faculty — professionals with decades of real-world experience implementing the ideas found in the world’s greatest business and leadership books — distill the best of what we’ve learned into one focused, practical, one-hour Zoom session. No fluff. No overwhelm. Just wisdom you can actually use.
Here’s how your hour breaks down:
The Deep Dive (20 minutes) — We go deep on one powerful insight from a classic like Think and Grow Rich, Atomic Habits, Dare to Lead, or any of the 200+ books in the EBR library. Not a summary — a focused lens on one idea, made clear and immediately applicable to your life and work.
The Conversation (20 minutes) — Open discussion with a zoom room full of smart, growth-minded professionals. What does this look like in your world? What have you tried? What’s working? What doesn’t work? This is where insight becomes wisdom.
The Quick Win (20 minutes) — Practical tips you can apply today. A time-saving tech trick. A communication technique that changes how people hear you. A productivity habit that actually sticks. Concrete, tested, and ready to use before the week is out.
One hour a month. Zero cost to attend. A lifetime of ideas behind every session.
EBR has been connecting lifelong learners since 2014. Come find your people.
Note, this event will be held on zoom only.
