- think your abilities are set in stone
- believe your intelligence can't be increased
Then you have a FIXED mindset
(and you're wrong)

(and you're wrong)
People with a FIXED mindset are the type to
- never try anything hard
- never ask anyone for help
- blame luck and circumstance for other's successes
- never try anything hard
- never ask anyone for help
- blame luck and circumstance for other's successes
But if you...
- aren't afraid to fail
- know that you can learn any new skill
- understand you grow smarter as you learn
Then you have a GROWTH mindset
- aren't afraid to fail
- know that you can learn any new skill
- understand you grow smarter as you learn
Then you have a GROWTH mindset
People with a GROWTH mindset
- step up to challenges
- lean on others to get the help they need
- understand they are responsible for their results

Having a growth mindset leads to progress and achievement.
Having a fixed mindset leads to stagnation and failure.
If you have a fixed mindset, you can change it with conscious effort. How?

You have to shift your thinking.
When you're faced with challenges, tell yourself you CAN overcome it.
If you want to learn a skill, tell yourself you CAN learn it.
When something goes wrong, ask yourself how you CAN do better next time.
