• Can always improve with hard
work
• Effort is the path to mastery
• Challenges are an opportunity to
grow
• Feedback is valuable for learning
and improving
• Setbacks are temporary and
valuable learning
• Learn from and inspired by others
• Ability is based on fixed traits that
cannot change
• Effort only when not good enough
• Avoid challenges because they
could reveal lack of skill
• Feedback is threatening and to be
avoided
• Set backs are discouraging and
generally other peoples’ fault
