They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. > They also believe that talent alone creates success—without effort. In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point.

When on a journey to learn something new and grow, this is essential to stick to your plan despite, you know, life.
