Studies have shown that to be successful, individuals need to have a growth mindset instead of a fixed one. A fixed mindset assumes the person achieves all abilities and talents with minimum effort and cannot improve. Those with a growth mindset are in constant flux, perpetually working to improve upon their talents and gifts.

Individuals with a growth mindset are more likely to attack challenges and use feedback from failures rather than dwell on them. They will accept challenges and help others to become more creative. If you're looking to develop a growth mindset, utilize these four tips.

Believe you can do it. It's important to have confidence in yourself, so begin the day with a mantra reminding yourself that you're capable of doing whatever you need to accomplish. Convince yourself that the payoff is more than worth it.

Let yourself fail. While this tip might seem counterintuitive, especially since the previous tip states that you should believe in yourself, it's okay to try something and fail. As uncomfortable as that may seem, failing is almost a necessity to be successful because it reminds you that you need to work at achieving your goals.

Avoid being envious. When you witness other people's success, it's easy to be jealous and compare what you're doing to what they've accomplished. Instead of doing that, use their success for what you'd like to achieve as your motivation.

Push yourself. It's easy to get complacent and remain in your comfort zone. This place is usually free of conflict, but staying in that zone prevents you from growing. Step outside of your comfort zone and challenge yourself.

The keys to developing a growth mindset involve working on your skills and intelligence to achieve success. Changing your perspective, seeing your challenges as opportunities, and identifying opportunities to celebrate success can help you become a better worker.
