Dr. Carol DweckIndividuals who have fixed mindsets view their
intelligence and skills as constant and unchanging rather than
malleable. Individuals who have growth mindsets view their
intelligence as something that can be improved upon through effort
and instruction.Fixed mindsets get in the way of learning whereas
growth mindsets foster a can do attitude toward learning.
Dr. Carol DweckPeople can have different mindsets in different
domains.Children who have growth mindsets view new experiences as
challenges or opportunities rather than obstacles.Children who have
growth mindsets are not concerned about looking smart because their
goal is to learn.

Coach Norman DaleRemember what got you here Focus on the
fundamentals.And most importantly, dont get caught up in winning or
losing this game.If you put your effort and concentration into
playing to your potential, to be the best that you can be, I dont
care what the scoreboard says at the end of the game. In my book,
we are going to be winners.
ConclusionParents and teachers can assist children to acquire a
growth mindset by valuing effort rather than outcomes.
