Goal orientation is pretty simple, for a larger goal set up concrete smaller goals like "practice the parts I can't do every day for 1 hour until I can do them"

Goal orientation is pretty simple, for a larger goal set up concrete smaller goals like "practice the parts I can't do every day for 1 hour until I can do them" and then do those. I don't see how growth mindset is related at all. Here is the main definition of fixed mindset (the opposite of growth mindset): > In a fixed mindset students believe their basic abilities, their intelligence, their talents, are just fixed traits. I don't believe this at all. I strongly believe that people cannot improve their intelligence, that some people are destined to be dumb their whole lives while others are brilliant. Of course I can still see the value of practice, and that working hard can immensely improve your performance, but I am still "fixed mindset" according to the definition. Do you believe that people can improve their intelligence through hard work? If not, then you are fixed mindset like me.
