Ana looked confused, so Kieran explained, "There are two mindsets: fixed mindset and growth mindset. With a fixed mindset, you believe you can't do something because you haven't done it before. But with a growth mindset, you believe you can always learn and improve with practice."
Ana thought about this for a moment and then smiled. "Okay, I'll give it a try!"
Kieran showed Ana how to hold the guitar and where to place her fingers on the strings. At first, Ana was frustrated as the sounds she was making did not sound as nice as Kieran's, but he encouraged her to keep trying.
"Remember, Ana, it's okay to make mistakes. That's how we learn," he reminded her. "I have three special tricks that help me build my growth mindset."

"Whenever you face a challenge, like when your puzzle pieces don't fit, don't worry!
Mistakes are okay. They help us learn!"
Number two
"Talk nicely to yourself. Instead of saying, 'I can't do it,'
say, 'I'm still learning!'
That way, you feel brave to try again!"

"Have fun!
My mum always said that we sometimes focus too much on getting things done as fast as we can,
but it's important to have fun along the way and celebrate every little step!"
“Alright, let’s try this!” Kieran challenged Ana to practise her growth mindset through a mind map that he drew on the ground using a stick.
Help Ana choose her route!
