Fixed Mindset to Growth Mindset: Moving the Immovable

Having a growth mindset is essential if you are going to find success and fulfillment in your life. According to Carol Dwek a psychologist at Stanford University who coined the term, there are two mindsets, fixed and growth. The whole idea behind her research is your intelligence is not fixed. It is not immoveable. We take that a step further and argue the two ultimate mindsets are a mindset of defeatism and a mindset of a champion. You can move your mindset from one to the other.
