I personally like to think I have a growth mindset. There are times where my mindset can be fixed if I am in a pessimistic mood but I'm working on that. My educational journey has influenced my mindset. I am a very competitive naturally and growing up as a gifted child made me have a fixed mindset. I gave up when things don't come easy to me and felt miserable when I met a person I thought was better than me. But going to through college has made me unlearn that because I still want to be great and the only way to get better is to keep trying. I learned it is okay to look "dumb" because admitting I do not have the knowledge yet will make me more readily to absorb more knowledge. My growth mindset has impacted my success a lot. I am no longer afraid and embarrassed to ask fo help. I notice I work harder and feel great after achieving what I set my mind to do.
