You’re in charge of your mind. You can help it grow by using it in the right way.
In a growth mindset, challenges are exciting rather than threatening. So rather than thinking, oh, I'm going to reveal my weaknesses, you say, wow, here's a chance to grow.
What can I learn from this? What will I do next time I'm in this situation?
