See Your Work in Terms of
Progress, Not Perfection
We all approach the goals we pursue
with one of two mindsets: what I call
the Be-Good mindset, where the
focus is on proving that you have a lot
of ability and that you already know
what you're doing, and the Get-Better
mindset, where the focus is on
developing your ability and learning
new skills. You can think of it as the
difference between wanting to show
that you are smart versus wanting to
get smarter.
When you have a Be-Good mindset,
you expect to be able to do everything
perfectly right out
