ABSTRACT
Most of the people very often make resolution to become physically fit. Most of the time it is to manage weight and to look beautiful. There are also some people who want to do exercise to remain healthy or to overcome some manageable disease condition. The major obstacle which they all face is not the lack of knowledge, facilities or time but the non - consistency. Research has indicated that half of the people falls in the category of exercise drop outs after few months of beginning. We know that fixed mindset is a hindrance to our growth whereas the growth mindset takes us to new heights. Therefore, an effort is made to review the related research and literature and to frame out a mindset which helps to stick on to our physical activity regimen.
