Relationships that have a growth mindset are stronger:

“The thoughts we have are incredibly powerful, and they inform (and are informed by) our core beliefs about relationships, which act as a blueprint for how we treat each other; this blueprint in turn impacts our behavior within our relationships. Depending on these core beliefs, we might manage our feelings in a way that brings us closer to the other person or in a way that takes us further apart. When we can combine a growth mindset with strong internal and external boundaries, then we can foster possibility in our relationships while still staying grounded in the reality of what we need and deserve.”

Success isn’t about commitment, it’s about recommitment:

“Success is often about recommitting. You don’t commit once and ride that one commitment to the end. Instead, life happens — you have trouble staying the course, or something comes out of nowhere and knocks you off the track. And when that happens, and you feel demoralized or humiliated, you have multiple options: You can say, ‘Well, I failed. It wasn’t meant to be,’ and stop trying. Or you can recommit to the plan you’ve set forth.”
