Mindset
The New Psychology of Success
Book • 2006
In this book, Carol S. Dweck introduces the concept of two mindsets: the fixed mindset and the growth mindset.
People with a fixed mindset believe their abilities are static, while those with a growth mindset believe their abilities can be developed through effort and learning.
Dweck shows how these mindsets influence success in school, work, sports, and personal relationships.
She also discusses how to adopt a deeper, truer growth mindset, and how this can transform individual and organizational cultures.
The book emphasizes the importance of perseverance, learning from failures, and embracing challenges as key components of the growth mindset.
