According to Western Governors University: "A [[growth mindset]] means that you thrive on challenge, and don’t see failure as a way to describe yourself but as a springboard for growth and developing your abilities. Your [[intelligence]] and talents are all susceptible to growth. Dr. Carol Dweck of Stanford University first talked about the power of mindset nearly 30 years ago. Carol Dweck and her team became interested in the attitude of students when it comes to failure. After studying the behavior of students and children, the term “growth mindset” came about. Simply put, this mindset means that you believe in your ability to become better through hard work, and help from others."<ref>[https://www.wgu.edu/blog/what-is-growth-mindset-8-steps-develop-one1904.html#close What is a growth mindset? 8 steps to develop one.], Western Governors University</ref>
