The research of psychologist Carol Dweck has drawn attention to the fixed and growth mindsets and the implications of both on the individuals who possess them. Dweck’s research and that of others after her have highlighted the detriment the fixed mindset can be as compared to the value the growth mindset in sales has to offer.

- Self-Awareness
- Learning
- Self-Esteem
- Challenges, Risk-Taking, & Competition
