People with a growth mindset believe abilities can be developed. They see setbacks as lessons, challenges as opportunities, and effort as a pathway to mastery. On the other hand, those with a fixed mindset believe abilities are permanent and this belief blocks progress.
A growth mindset starts with the willingness to learn. Instead of being defensive when corrected, seek feedback. Feedback is a free guide to improvement. Successful people treat feedback as gold.
Another part of growth mindset is embracing discomfort. Growth rarely happens inside the comfort zone. When you intentionally choose challenges, push your limits, and try new things, you expand your capabilities.
The language you use also shapes your mindset. Replace phrases like I’m not good at this with I’m learning this. Replace I failed with I discovered what doesn’t work. Words create beliefs, and beliefs create reality.
