The Growth Mindset:

The growth mindset refers to a state of mind which cultivates a willingness to grow through challenges and adversity, and by personal achievements in overcoming obstacles leads to a person who is always becoming a better version of who they are or once were.
A growth mindset in pertaining to intellectual abilities, is to believe that such things as intelligence, memory, learning comprehension are Not static phenomenon’s but rather qualities that can be strengthened and developed to further and further extents of cognitive abiliity.
A growth mindset is essential to being a successful software developer, as one must be willing to deal with errors or problems as challenges to be overcome, not walls to impede all further progress, and at times one must be able to innovate new ways of doing things.

When I encounter a problem within my code, it is an opportunity to learn something.
If something isn’t working the way I want it to, I should remember there are multiple ways to do some things and perhaps a different angle is in order.
As long as I’m willing to make the effort towards success, I will become more prone to success as the mind is like a muscle that gets stronger with use.
