“Growth mindset is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can cultivate through your efforts, your strategies, and help from others. Although people may differ in every which way—in their initial talents and aptitudes, interests, or temperaments—everyone can change and grow through application and experience.”

We have a growth mindset when we believe that we can learn, grow, and change from our life experiences, our studies, and other people. We are not stagnant. We are expanding in knowledge, experience, talents, skills, and being.
