The idea that math educators should focus on effort rather than on results—that failure is part of the success equation, because a set of false starts, failures, and frustrations are often necessary or unavoidable before someone could experience some degree of mathematical progress or achievement.
To fail is no shame, but failure to try again often is. A growth mindset in mathematics is to try or fail again, while failing better or faster each time.

One who has achieved far beyond what his average or below-average mathematical intelligence could allow him to do, by lying, bullshitting, scheming, pretending, or backstabbing—the mathematical equivalent of a racist-rapist-turned-fraud-felon who got elected, rejected, and reelected despite all the odds against him.
Guesstimate how many mathematical frauds make it bigly in the publishing industry worldwide every year.
