Additional quotes by Carol S. Dweck

When you enter a mindset, you enter a new world. In one world — the world of fixed traits — success is about proving you’re smart or talented. Validating yourself. In the other — the world of changing qualities — it’s about stretching yourself to learn something new. Developing yourself.

Now consider the idea that they just used better strategies, taught themselves more, practiced harder, and worked their way through obstacles. You can do that, too, if you want to.

If you don’t give anything, don’t expect anything. Success is not coming to you, you must come to it.

And this is part of the fixed mindset. Effort is for those who don’t have the ability. - Carol S. Dweck
