Mindset - Changing the way you think to fulfill your potential:
After decades of study, world-renowned psychologist Carol S. Dweck of Stanford University, Ph.D., has discovered a basic but revolutionary idea: the influence of attitude. In this fascinating novel, she shows how performance can be profoundly affected by how we think about our talents and abilities in education, work, athletics, the arts, and almost every field of human endeavor. People with a fixed mindset — those who think abilities are fixed — are less likely to thrive than those with a mindset of growth — those who feel abilities can be created. Mindset shows how successful parents, teachers, administrators, and athletes can use the concept to promote exceptional achievement.
Dweck provides new insights into her now well-recognized and widely accepted definition in this section. She discusses a trend which she calls false growth mentality and directs people towards a stronger, truer growth mentality. She also extends the idea of mindset beyond the individual, extending it to groups and organizations' cultures. You will inspire those you lead with the right attitude, and teach them and love—to transform their lives and your own.
