The more you embrace a growth mindset, the quicker you’ll become at learning from your mistakes, according to an Inc. article rounding up recent neuroscience studies. Inc. defines a growth mindset as the belief that intelligence, ability, and talent can be learned and improved with effort.

- Be willing to learn from mistakes
- Better correct and learn from mistakes, and
- Better accept feedback
