I don’t mind losing as long as I see improvement or I feel I’ve done as well as I possibly could.

When you enter a mindset, you enter a new world. In one world (the world of fixed traits) success is about proving you’re smart or talented. Validating yourself. In the other (the world of changing qualities) it’s about stretching yourself to learn something new. Developing yourself.

Why waste time proving over and over how great you are, when you could be getting better? Carol S. Dweck
