Renowned psychologist Carol Dweck, from Stanford University, has spent decades researching what drives achievement and success. Her groundbreaking discovery? The power of mindset.
Dweck reveals that it’s not just our talents or abilities that determine success, but whether we approach challenges with a fixed mindset or a growth mindset. She highlights how praising intelligence and talent can unintentionally harm self-esteem and hinder achievement. Instead, adopting the right mindset fosters motivation, resilience, and a lifelong love of learning.
With these insights, Dweck shows how we can inspire children to improve their grades, achieve personal goals, and excel in our professional lives. She uncovers the secrets known by great parents, teachers, athletes, and leaders: a simple shift in mindset can unlock potential and lead to extraordinary accomplishments in all areas of life.
