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 jeopardize 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.

Product description

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 --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review

An utterly compelling story of how the way we think shapes our success.Essential reading for anyone with aspirations.

Will prove to be one of the most influential books ever about motivation.

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.

If you manage any people or if you are a parent (which is a form of managing people), drop everything and read Mindset. --This text refers to the paperback edition.

Excellent book

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 25 February 2023

Verified Purchase

I loved reading the book - the author has explained the Fixed and Growth mindset in great detail along with relatable case studies. I liked the approach to building understanding and making me think as a reader. The writing style follows a conversational mode, making me think on a few occasions and introspect. A perfect book for someone focusing on introspection, growth and self-development.

Also some powerful tips about parenting children for the future to grow resilience and strength. Also it ties in very well with concepts of management around radical candor, grit and resilience.

… and then practise it for rest of your life.

This is one of the most important books should you consider changing your personality through your attitude. Even if you are not a ferocious reader, you can just read the first half of the book and you are done. The author spends the rest of time in justifying his theory in the second part.

Highly recommended.

US Sports Centred Narrative Learning

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 15 March 2019

Verified Purchase

Useful effort allows for learning and growth. Making effort useful requires a willingness to look at process and change what isn't working. Failure is a way of understanding that the effort wasn't useful and a tool to speed future progress.

This book has salient information for everyone but the delivery is so laboured, it's easy to miss. You can get the gist by reading the summary at the end of each chapter and speeding through the final chapter (8), skipping around 75%.

Definitely buy this book if:
* you like your information delivered slowly in a narrative form and repeated
* you have a big interest in US sports
* you find social proof persuasive or motivating.

"How to Fail at Everything and Still Win Big" by Scott Adams would be a suitable replacement and is a much better investment of time.

Very repetitive and concept could be summed up in a paragraph

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on 4 July 2020

Verified Purchase

Repetitive to the point of exhaustion.

Felt more like an attempt at brainwash than anything really interesting.

I will save you all the money and tell you the final conclusion:

People can continue to learn and get smarter.
IQ is not a fixed thing and can constantly be improved by anyone.
Anyone who believes otherwise or that they are special are in a "fixed mindset".
Anyone who believes they can improve their intelligence/skills/knowledge is in a "growth mindset".

Growth mindset is better than fixed mindset.

Helped me find peace with how others treat me

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 11 March 2019

Verified Purchase

Not only did it help me transform how I approach thinking about problems in a transformatively more positive way, it's also enabled me to clearly identify how significant others throughout my life (parents, teachers, bosses, colleagues, friends) think (fixed or growth mindset), which has helped me find peace with the way they judge(d) me. This has helped me shift out of feeling responsible for the way I've been judged and I've already shed lots of negative beliefs I held about myself either as a result of the way others spoke to me, or the way in which I spoke to myself with negative self-talk. It's repetitive, which annoys some people, but get this book and read it anyway. You can always take a break from it and dive back in later, you won't be sorry.

Game Changer!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 17 December 2018

Verified Purchase

Every now and again you come across a book that is not just interesting, informative, insightful or educational, and not just changes the way you think, but changes the way you see the world. Mindset takes you through a journey of the differences between a "growth mindeset" and "fixed mindeset" what that means and how you can make a difference.
Or try and make a difference. In your work life, your personal life, how you deal with colleagues, your friends, family and your children. This book is not a "tickbox" or a "top ten things you need to do" and the reason for this, is that the change has to come from within you. This book purley is a catalyst to empower you to make that change. I've purchased a copy for all my friends for Christmas.

Does not live up to the hype.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 28 September 2020

Verified Purchase

A trusted friend told me this book changed her life, so I was excited about reading it. What powerful advice did the author have for me? Turns out, not much.

The central premise of the book is a statement of the obvious: You can get better at anything you like; it just requires effort, effective strategies and learning from setbacks. People who do this often out-perform people who have greater innate ability but do not apply effort, go through the motions and blame setbacks on others.

That’s it. The rest of the book is endless US-centric sporting anecdotes, written in the glib style of a 300-page LinkedIn post. Some parts really made me cringe: “The growth mindset gave me a mother”; “Parents who send fixed-mindset messages are like France, and parents who send growth-mindset messages are like Italy”; “If we do not learn and work hard, we will take an Icarian flight to nowhere” (the latter supposedly uttered by a four-year-old boy with a STRONG growth mindset).

My recommendation would be to read a one-page summary of this book online, then spend the time you would have spent reading the book studying “Learning to Learn” on Coursera, which provides much more insightful and practical advice about getting better at things in (dare I say it?) a growth-minded way.
