People with a fixed mindset believe their skills were given to them at birth and that they’re either good at something, or they’re not.

However, growth-oriented people believe they can hone the skills they already possess, as well as acquire and develop new skills and business.

At age 39, Roger Federer is widely considered to be the greatest tennis player of all time. He has won a record 20 Grand Slam singles titles and held the ATP no 1 ranking for a record 310 weeks. For this champion, winning is all about mindset.

“It is always in my mind still that I can crush anybody,” he said. “That’s not an issue. But I think that is the same for most athletes. If you don’t believe you can win tournaments anymore, then you can’t do it.”
