If you have an optimistic mindset and poor abilities, how does that translate to a better outcome than a pessimistic mindset?

  You worked on improving your poor abilities rather than accepting it as just.

    You can work on your abilities and be pessimistic though. They aren't mutually exclusive.

      Yes but it's harder, so your expected outcome is lower.

      I understand where you're getting at. I think many pessimistic people don't start or give up earlier and this leads to the self fulfilling prophecy. Could be wrong, objective data would be needed for sure.
