    Fixed mindset and Growth mindset.

    'Fixed mindset' as the name suggests is a state where a person believes that his abilities are fixed traits and which be changed. 'Growth mindset' on the other hand is a state where a person believes that his abilities can be changed and amplified through hard work and commitment.

    Consider the following demonstration: since childhood I had a fixed mindset that I won't ever be able to speak in front of a group of people because of my fear of public speaking. Because of this, I avoided speaking in elocution competitions despite being good at writing.

    Now consider the next stage when my fixed mindset traits changed: After years of struggle and realization, it hit me that anybody can speak if one is confident enough. This stage of my life was called growth mindset when I even started taking parts in elocution competitions and even won the first prize in almost all the competitions.

    You see, when fixed mindset of 'I can't do this' changes to a growth mindset of 'everything is possible' great things begin to happen.
