A) genetics
B) geography
C) luck
D) personality factors

Carol Dweck's research suggests that need for achievement is closely related to personality factors, particularly a growth mindset, which is the belief that one's abilities and intelligence can be developed through hard work and dedication. People with a growth mindset are more likely to have a high need for achievement and strive for success through effort and persistence, rather than relying solely on innate abilities.
