Description
The updated edition of the book that has changed millions of lives with its insights into the growth mindset.
After decades of research, world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D., discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she shows how success in school, work, sports, the arts, and almost every area of human endeavor can be dramatically influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities. People with a fixed mindset—those who believe that abilities are fixed—are less likely to flourish than those with a growth mindset—those who believe that abilities can be developed. Mindset reveals how great parents, teachers, managers, and athletes can put this idea to use to foster outstanding accomplishment.
In this edition, Dweck offers new insights into her now famous and broadly embraced concept. She introduces a phenomenon she calls false growth mindset and guides people toward adopting a deeper, truer growth mindset. She also expands the mindset concept beyond the individual, applying it to the cultures of groups and organizations. With the right mindset, you can motivate those you lead, teach, and love—to transform their lives and your own.

The book was not quite as scholarly as I had anticipated, but instead, it was a highly readable yet credible explanation of how our thinking can create traps that limit our behaviours, feelings, and thoughts.
It’s a great companion piece to the wealth of knowledge out there in personal development. Read it and grow.

If you’re looking for a better understanding of how your mindset – either growth or fixed – affects your opinions, self worth, outlook on the world, personal limitations and the trajectory of your life – read this book. There were so many examples in the book of celebrities, corporate leaders, and sports legends displaying the different mindsets and showing the results of these mindsets – it was fascinating to read.
