A growth mindset is the belief that your abilities, intelligence, and talents can be developed through dedication, effort, learning, and persistence. This concept was introduced by psychologist Dr. Carol Dweck, who contrasted it with a fixed mindset, where people believe their traits are static and unchangeable. In a growth mindset, challenges are seen as opportunities, failure is treated as a learning experience, and effort is viewed as the path to mastery.
