Contrary to the belief that confidence comes from innate talent or success, a growth mindset can help build confidence over time. As individuals consistently work toward their goals and see progress, their confidence in their abilities grows.
Since individuals with a growth mindset understand that their success is the result of effort and learning, they are less likely to be discouraged by setbacks. Instead of being discouraged by failure, they view it as an opportunity to improve, which helps maintain and build self-confidence.
