Publisher's Summary

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.

A life changing narrative

Excellent narration and content. Powerful concepts backed by practical stories. I thought I had understood the concept but there is so much to learn here.

Set the right Mindset now

I listened to Mindset in one week. Whilst in the car, peeling the spuds and while in the office needing some inspiration.

I discovered more about my mindset than I ever have in my professional development.

I've started to listen to it again while I take some notes for my own work as a leadership consultant.

Looking forward to sharing this gold.

Simple Concept - Difficult to Master!

I wish my mum would embrace a growth-mindset! 😩 I was info-overloaded at the end of this book. 😱 Where best to put my effort? Think I’ll high-speed re-listen 🎧 and make a shortlist of tips 📜 relevant to just me 🎯 from the plethora presented. Is that how the growth-mindset would handle this? 😇

Growth Mindset outperforms Fixed Mindset.

A bit like the optimist sees opportunity in times of difficulty the person with a Growth Mindset analyses each situation to improve their journey to success while a person with Fixed Mindset can be anxious in reproving their value to exist. The book has a great collection of real life stories covering achievements & failures from business to sport. It backs this up with data looking at both nature & nurture in terms of natural-ability/growth-or-fixed-mindset/hard-work.

Great book, informative and relevant.
Only lost a point as the narrator was a bit like a robot to listen too

Gave me insights to my thoughts

Its a good listen to understand the thought processes of your own and then work on what you want to change

this book taught me that I am a shy person with a growing mindset and it helped me big time because I never thought I am shy !!!
