Publisher's Summary
No time to read? Get the main key insights from this summary of Carol S. Dweck’s Mindset in just a short listen.
A few key insights from Chapter 1:
1. Our beliefs, no matter how simple or complex, can deeply affect our ability to reach our goals.
2. Humans have used the nature versus nurture argument to explain why people think and act differently. However, genes and environment work hand in hand rather than separately.
3. Believing that all your qualities are fixed can cause you to constantly seek approval of your intelligence, personality, and character in all settings. But if you believe that your qualities can be cultivated, you can thrive in challenging times and your true potential can flourish.
4. A bad day, unless catastrophic or irreversible, is not a direct measure of your competence and worth. Viewing it like that will create feelings of failure and paralysis, rather than allowing you to cope with it directly despite feeling distressed.
