In my opinion, our current knowledge could seem as our limit.

If you have never installed a lamp, then installing a lamp is out of reach.

The same goes with anything else.

So at the end, it can feel like our capacity is limited, thinking only about our current skills, capabilities.

But... if we learn, we expand our knowledge, skills and capabilities, therefore we expend our "reach". We will have more options.

Thinking on this line can mean, that our current knowledge defines our current options, but by learning new things, or trying new things out, we expand our options.

Also taking options increases our experiences, that will give us more options. It's a self-reinforcing cycle.

So for me, growth mindset means, that we know by doing, we will be able to do more.

Means that our current options are just the byproduct of our current skills, capabilities, and learning, experiencing will expand this "circle".

Sorry for writing in "gibberish", I still need to learn to express my thoughts better, and there is no better way, then doing. Feedback is welcomed!
