Mindset: The New Psychology of Success (Available on Amazon) is a self-help book by Carol Dweck, designed to help you understand and change a fundamental mindset to impact all aspects of your life and reach your full potential. Why do some people fall apart in face of setbacks, while others turn their failures into success? Why are some people obsessed with proving themselves, while others can laugh at and learn from their mistakes?

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi: Flow

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi: Flow: If you’ve felt hours fly by like moments or marvelled at a sunrise you’ve experienced flow. In fact, it’s a state we experience surprisingly often, at work, at home and at play. Mihaly’s Flow  explores how we can experience enjoyment in our lives by controlling our attention and strengthening our resolve. This is achieved by being immersed in an activity or subject that makes us neither anxious, nor bored. In this “flow state” we lose our self-consciousness, selfishness and sense of time. Using goal-setting and immediate feedback, we can achieve a state of flow that improves our relationship with work, increases our self-worth and gives our lives meaning.“The best moments in our lives occur when a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult or worthwhile.” Mihaly Thanks to our monthly supporters Emily Rose Banks Malcolm Magee Jason Kumagai Natalie Triman Kaur Ryan N.

Charlie Munger: Latticework of Mental Models

Charlie Munger is one of the greatest investors of all time. Plenty of people have called him a “learning machine.” The phrase ‘Latticework of Mental Models’ comes from Berkshire-Hathaway’s Charles Munger, who spent most of his life working out ways to, for lack of a better term, think better. Munger has come to the conclusion that in order to make better decisions in business and in life, you must find and understand the core principles from all disciplines.You have to learn all the big ideas in the key disciplines in a way that they’re in a mental latticework in your head and you automatically use them for the rest of your life.  – Charlie MungerThis is what he calls Elementary Worldly Wisdom, and using his system of Mental Models can help you succeed in almost any endeavour.

Shane Parrish: The Great Mental Models

Shane Parrish and Rhiannon Beaubien’s The Great Mental Models: Is designed to upgrade your thinking with the best, most useful, and powerful tools so you always have the right one on hand. Mental models help you improve your decision-making, productivity, and how clearly you see the world. You will discover what forces govern the universe and how to focus your efforts so you can harness them to your advantage, rather than fight with them or worse yet— ignore them. The old saying goes, "To the man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail." But anyone who has done any kind of project knows a hammer often isn't enough. The more tools you have at your disposal, the more likely you'll use the right tool for the job — and get it done right. The same is true when it comes to your thinking. The quality of your outcomes depends on the mental models in your head. And most people are going through life with little more than a hammer. Until now.Upgrade your mental toolbox!
