A growth mindset, a concept developed by psychologist Carol Dweck, is the belief that abilities can be developed through effort and learning. Unlike a fixed mindset (believing talent is innate), a growth mindset fosters resilience and success.
Key Principles:
Embrace Challenges: View obstacles as opportunities to learn.
Learn from Criticism: Feedback is a tool for improvement, not a personal attack.
Persist Despite Failure: Mistakes are part of the learning process.
How to Cultivate It:
Replace "I can’t do this" with "I can’t do this yet."
Celebrate effort, not just outcomes.
Surround yourself with growth-minded people.
Adopting this mindset improves performance in academics, careers, and personal life
