Hi Team,

A winning part of our makeup is that we’ve got grit. And what contributes to having grit?

A growth mindset.

"When people are in a growth mindset, they look at their talent and abilities as things that can be developed through hard work, good strategies, and help and input from others.”

Ultimately, those with a perspective focused on growth are more willing to jump in, grasp hold of a challenge, and roll with the punches because they’re not interpreting everything as reflecting on their deep permanent ability. 

At a company like Lewis Road, nurturing this type of mindset and maintaining a strong determination towards both self and team development is crucial. I don’t think any of us feel fixed in place - and we shouldn’t! As a business, Lewis Road Creamery absolutely reflects this concept. You’ll set yourself up for stunted progress if you simply try hard and base a black-and-white failure or success upon innate ability. If you don’t believe you have the ability to improve… then you are correct, you certainly do not. 

Devote your beliefs entirely to set goals, strategise, and engage with the setbacks. Display your mettle. You achieve what you set your mind to fulfilling.

Cultivate a deep knowledge of our strengths and weaknesses, individually and collectively. Find ways to play to our strengths.

I hope you all have a relaxing and joyful Easter with your loved ones. Make sure to eat lots of chocolate and drink lots of Bunny Milk!

Stay gritty.

“Grit makes pearls, after all.”
