Failure is viewed by a fixed mindset as a definition how they are a failure as a person whereas those with a growth mindset are more likely to take failure at a specific task as learning opportunity. For instance, those with a fixed mindset tended to care only about learning whether passed a test rather than whether or not they actually understood knowledge that could help with future growth. The premise here is that both mindsets are choices people make, and those choices can affect every aspect of their lives. The growth mindset is persistent, tenacious, and views criticism constructively. These mindsets lead to behavior traits: fixed mindsets avoid new challenges and are quick to give up when they fail. A growth mindset is one that believes that traits like these are not fixed, but can be cultivated, learned, and changed. A fixed mindset is one that accepts the idea of predetermined abilities, aptitudes, and talents that can only be proven or not. The opening chapter introduces the foundational concept behind the rest of the book, which is that of two different mindsets.
