MIND SET


A fixed mind-set is the belief that our abilities - our intelligence, physical competence personality, and interpersonal skills - are essentially set in stone and cannot really change.  We are either gifted and talented in which case we'll succeed  in school, at work, in sports, and our relationships, or we are permanently deficient and consequently doomed to failure.  In  contrast, a *growth-mindset is the belief that our abilities are malleable - that they can, and do change throughout our lives; we are born with certain abilities, but these provide a mere starting point, and to succeed we have to apply ourselves, dedicate time, invest a great deal of effort.


P.S.  Writer go for the *Growth-Mindset
