We all take pleasure when our ideas come to fruition. We're even more pleased when the ideas have an impact by improving motivation, innovation, or productivity, among other areas. The spread of an idea can benefit many, but that popularity can also alter and distort the original.
A?growth mindset?is "the belief that an individual's most basic abilities and skills can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point."
A?fixed mindset?is "the belief that an individual's basic abilities and skills, their intelligence and their talents, are just fixed traits."
Individuals who believe they can develop their talents through hard work, good strategies and input from others have a growth mindset. These individuals are likelier to achieve more than those with fixed mindsets because they put more energy into learning and are less concerned about looking smart.
Be 100 percent accountable
To grow, you need to be accountable, or willing to accept responsibility. As an entrepreneur, you must start to be responsible and accountable to yourself. As you grow, you will be demonstrating accountability and its value to your team; they will follow your lead, making accountability part of your company's culture.
Do not be too concerned with what others have
Fundamentally important when you're trying to be focused, driven and leading. Focusing on what others have and what they are doing sets expectations that simply slow you down and take focus away from your purpose.
Become an expert in your field
In a world fuelled by fake news, Photoshop ‘ed social posts and other illusions, it's critical to become an expert. Strive to become truly good at what you do so good that everybody wants your services. Stand out based on your specialty.
Don't focus on your failures be positive you can do it!!
When we learn that we should work on our weaknesses, we tend to think we need to hold on to our failures. But focusing on your failures gives detractors too much leverage against you. Instead, claim and learn from your failures and then focus on learning and growing from your mistakes.
Do the work and put in the time
Greatness does not come when you put in just ten percent. Put in ten percent, and you'll achieve only two percent of your potential. To achieve greatness, you've got to be at 100 percent, putting in the time and effort.
Do what you love for the people who love what you do think like they do!!
"You need to be purpose-driven doing what you love for those who love what you do."

Be grateful for what you have
Be grateful for what you have now. Be grateful for what you're going to achieve. Be grateful for what you don't have. Gratitude is a gift and a core requirement for a growth mindset. The true expression of gratitude sets off energy that has the power of drawing people towards you. Explore and embrace it.
Become self-aware and understand your purpose
