Achieving Success In Any Area
A mindset is a set of assumptions, methods, or notations that is so established that it creates a powerful incentive within you to continue to adopt or accept prior behaviours, choices, or tools.
It’s so powerful that it affects every decision making processes. It predetermines your responses and interpretations of situations.
