The idea of mindset originates from the way people view their successes or failures over time. A psychology professor named Carol Dweck has studied the idea of mindset and has also written a book called Mindset: The New Psychology of Success. This book has helped many psychology professors and students understand the idea of mindset. There have been many experiments conducted on adults and children that show the difference between both a growth and fixed mindset. In an article called “The Effort Effect”, it states that kids who are encouraged to not quit and keep trying show a bigger difference than the kids that are not encouraged to continue (p. 8).
