Mindset Theory: Fixed vs Growth Dweck proposed that the implicit theories that people hold for the nature and causes of intelligence have a number of implications, particularly for motivation to practice and learn. "Mindset" is a term used by Dweck to explain the assumptions, methods, or notations held by one or more people or group of people. It represents the cognitive processes activated in response to a given task. Fixed Mindset (before termed as entity mindset) is an innate or in-born personality of a person, who you are or how God made you on the other hand Growth Mindset (or the incremental mindset), where people believe that training and effort to learn can change one's qualities and traits. Individuals with a fixed mindset tend to be interested only in feedback on their success in activities to the degree that it serves to evaluate their underlying ability. They are not using the feedback to learn, since they do not believe that their success depends on their effort to learn. Rather, they believe that success depends on the level of innate ability that they have. Therefore, they dread failure, because it suggests constraints or limits that they will not be able to overcome. A growth mindset, on the other hand, attributes success to learning. Therefore, the individual is not terrified of failure, because it only signals the need to pay attention, invest effort, apply time to practice, and master the new learning opportunity. They are confident that after such effort they will be able to learn the skill or knowledge, and then to improve their performance. GOAL SETTING THEORY
