World-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck, in decades of research on achievement and success, has discovered a truly groundbreaking idea-the power of our mindset.

Dweck explains why it's not just our abilities and talent that bring us success-but whether we approach them with a fixed or growth mindset. She makes clear why praising intelligence and ability doesn't foster self-esteem and lead to accomplishment, but may actually jeopardise success. With the right mindset, we can motivate our kids and help them to raise their grades, as well as reach our own goals-personal and professional. Dweck reveals what all great parents, teachers, CEOs, and athletes already know: how a simple idea about the brain can create a love of learning and a resilience that is the basis of great accomplishment in every area.

Review

An utterly compelling story of how the way we think shapes our success.Essential reading for anyone with aspirations. - Matthew Syed, author of Bounce and two-time Olympic athlete

Will prove to be one of the most influential books ever about motivation. - Po Bronson, author of NurtureShock

A good book is one whose advice you believe. A great book is one whose advice you follow. I have found Carol Dweck's work on mindsets invaluable in my own life, and even life-changing in my attitudes toward the challenges that, over the years, become more demanding rather than less. This is a book that can change your life, as its ideas have changed mine. - Robert J. Sternberg, IBM Professor of Education and Psychology at Yale University

If you manage any people or if you are a parent (which is a form of managing people), drop everything and read Mindset. - Guy Kawasaki, author of The Art of the Start

Book Description

An authoritative, practical guide on how to develop the mindset necessary for success, both personal and professional. - Revised and updated with new material

The ebook is fantastic, but the audio version is not good.

30 March 2019

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I bought the ebook on kindle and also the audiobook in this title. The content is fantastic and very interesting to read, and the content is very useful to apply to improving your life. However the audio version is almost impossible to listen to for more than 5 minutes. It sounds like the voice you hear when you type a document and you use software to read your document to you...that monotone, computer terrible voice. I highly recommend the written book which i love, but strongly advise against the audiobook, I regret my purchase there.

Mind bending in a good way.

11 June 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This is potentially life changing for those of us who believe we are limited by a preset level of intelligence. It challenges a common assumption that some kids are innately dumb or smart. It shows how to empower yourself by correcting a mistaken mindset. Refreshingly it’s not about unlocking your inner superstar. Instead it’s about thinking in a way that enables you to grow, and to allow others around you to grow too. And it’s liberating for those raised to believe they have high intelligence, but who may be afraid to fail because of it.

Really mind bending in a good way, ‘Mindset’ is as readable as a novel. This is the one book I am recommending to everyone this year, because it’s made me a less anxious person and a better parent, colleague and friend.

An easy yet profoundly insightful read

20 June 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Carol Dweck has a way with words, and you can really feel the work she has done to tame them over her life. (There you go Carol, praise the process right?)

Mindset is a very palatable, very approachable book on high level psychology and the effects it has on our lives; both the detrimental and the uplifting.

The language isn’t esoteric, and Carol definitely isn’t trying to flex years of academic knowledge and language - she is, instead, ultimately concerned with making her point as clearly as possible and to as many people as possible for, without a doubt, no other reason than to improve the lives of her readers.

Inside you’ll find anecdotes about people’s lives; both heartbreaking and liberating in equal serve. These stories stand to demonstrate the power between two very different approaches to processing the world, and our place within it, when faced with challenges, grief, disappointment, failure or loss. The stories act as paintings of two completely different portraits, and yet underlying this is the message that we, ultimately, are the artist of our own lives and while we may not be able to pick the canvas, we are free to choose the paint, the angle, the style and the time required to paint our own portrait; and that it will take time and effort to execute this at varying levels of success.

We all carry a mix of what’s labelled the Fixed-Mindset, and the Growth-Mindset, and as you’ll see it’s not a competition based on where you start relative to others in that ratio, nor a competition with yourself to be perfect.

If you ever hold yourself back, despite your successes, or if you feel hopeless and powerless to take control of yourself and become who you are capable of being, then start reading now.

You’ll not find strict answers to follow as a recipe for success, nor deep academic information, but you’ll find an encouraging way of looking at yourself, and the world; you’ll be kinder to yourself, kinder to others.

If not already, you’ll realise that you, like me, are an unfinished painting and that with time and effort, you can stand tall as a work of art, although never finished, in your own right.

Book is kinda boring.

19 August 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

The product shipped quickly so I am thankful for that.
The book itself is smaller than your typical book, and pages feel quite thin. At first I thought it felt quite cheap but it hasn't been damaged from casual reading.
The story in the book drags on. You get told within ten pages what the mindsets are which is great that it gets straight to the point, but then it continues to reiterate the two mindsets over and over in different scenarios. Gets repetitive and boring.

What I really liked about this book is that it is so readable

13 February 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

What I really liked about this book is that it is so readable. Often books about psychology are so theoretical that the average reader has no idea what it is about. Ms Dweck has developed the skill to make psychology readable and understandable. As I read this book I found myself becoming more and more growth mindset oriented and I'm glad I did. I found that I could see the damage that fixed mindset does to, not only to "ordinary" people but people who excel in their given fields. And have done my best to integrate growth mindset into everything I do.

Full of fascinating insights

16 April 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I really enjoyed the book because of the practical insights offered throughout. It's very clear how to implement a growth mindset & there's much to learn. Where it falls down is the amount of repetition cloaked in real life, real world examples.

Very good advice

Very good advice, but could have been written better. A lot of stories start without any link between them.

Regardless good read.

Verbose meandering pop psychology.

13 August 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

There’s some good points, better observed and explained by others, such as Josh Waitzkin’s The Art of Learning, which is more original and by someone who walks the walk. Sadly Mindset wastes a lot of time making few points.
