A mental model focusing on the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and hard work.
This mindset can be a powerful tool for resilience building, as it encourages embracing challenges, persisting in the face of setbacks, and seeing effort as a path to mastery. For example, someone with a growth mindset who fails a test would see it as an opportunity to learn and improve, rather than as a measure of their worth or ability.
In the fixed mindset, everything is about the outcome. If you fail—or if you're not the best—it's all been wasted. The growth mindset allows you to value what you're doing regardless of the outcome. - Carol S. Dweck
