Mindset: A New Perspective on the Psychology of Development for Adults and Children

At the core of this book lies a revolutionary concept discovered by renowned psychologist Carol Dweck as a result of 20 years of her own research.
From it, you will learn:
- why intelligence and talent do not guarantee success,
- how... they can actually hinder success,
- why often praising intelligence and talent puts achievements at risk,
- and how to improve a child's performance or a manager's productivity.
People with a fixed mindset believe that innate intelligence and talent are static. They spend time proving to everyone that they are smart and talented instead of developing their abilities. Moreover, they believe that talent leads to success on its own. And they are mistaken.

People with a growth mindset believe that all qualities can be developed through consistent effort, and the initial level of intelligence and talent is just a starting point. This approach fosters a love for continuous learning and resilience in the face of challenges and failures. It is hard to find a single outstanding person who does not possess these qualities.

The shift to a growth mindset enhances motivation and productivity in business, education, and sports. It enriches personal relationships.
When you read this book, you will learn how this happens.
