A simple example economy demonstrates how all economic growth is is individuals doing things or making things others want. Money is simply the IOU given to the craftsman, who gives it to the next person for something HE wants. Adding more money only makes the existing money worth less.

There are two types of mindsets we can cultivate. One that embraces problems as opportunities to learn, and one that avoids them, often out of fear to fail. People that avoid conflicts can be described as having a fixed mindset. Those who see problems as interesting challenges have a growth mindset. Sometimes we like to switch from one to the other.
