Success is a journey, not a destination from "summary" of Mindset by Carol S. Dweck
In the fixed mindset, success is seen as a finished product. The emphasis is on the outcome, the final result. This mindset believes that success is based on talent alone, and that effort is not necessary. When people operate from a fixed mindset, they are focused on proving their abilities. They want to show that they are smart, talented, or capable. This mindset leads to a desire to look good at all costs. People in a fixed mindset are afraid to take on challenges that may reveal their limitations. On the other hand, the growth mindset sees success as a journey. The emphasis is on the process, the effort, and the learning that takes place along the way. People with a growth mindset believe that success is based on dedication and hard work. They understand that effort is necessary for growth and improvement. When people operate from a growth mindset, they are focused on developing their abilities. They see challenges as opportunities to learn and grow. They are not afraid to take risks or make mistakes, because they understand that these are essential for progress. In the growth mindset, success is not about proving oneself, but about improving oneself. It is about pushing oneself beyond one's current limits and striving for personal development. People with a growth mindset understand that success is not a destination, but a journey. They know that true success is not about reaching a certain goal, but about continually growing, learning, and evolving. Success is not a fixed endpoint; it is a continuous process of self-improvement. In the growth mindset, success is not a final destination to be reached, but a never-ending journey of growth and development.
