The updated edition of the bestselling book that has changed millions of lives with its insights into the growth mindset

"Through clever research studies and engaging writing, Dweck illuminates how our beliefs about our capabilities exert tremendous influence on how we learn and which paths we take in life."--Bill Gates, GatesNotes

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.

I came across this book while reading bounce by Matthew Syed, and also outliers by Malcolm gladwell. However the forementioned books provide a much more succinct and effective synopsis of the growth mindset, both great reads. I found that this book was very badly structured, making it a hard read, plus the author seemed to repeat herself over and over again

Optimistic and Practical

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 July 2018

Carol's book is an excellent exploration of what it takes to become better, at anything. An inspirational philosophy that shifts away from ideas of "I'm great/terrible" and towards "I can improve no matter where I am".

Even if you don't agree with every argument made in the book (I didn't) it's a thought-provoking read nonetheless. Especially useful for people who have strong ideas around their "natural talents".

I can safely say I'll be taking many of the ideas in this book with me into the future - optimistic and practical.

Repetitive

Reviewed in the United States on 17 September 2018

This book could have easily been summed up in an article but instead it's a 240+ page book repeating essentially the same thing over and over and over. The book is about how your mindset, fixed or open, to challenges, beliefs, and overall life can have a great impact on how you adjust and what you become. As an example, if two children get an F on an assignment with different mindsets, the fixed will tend to think they're dumb and lose interest while the open will know they can learn and view it as a challenge.

That's it. I'm not being overly critical of the book or idea. That is the book stretched out using examples from sports, business, relationships, and pretty much areas where your mindset can help determine where you proceed when faced with a challenge.

I don't know how someone could give this five stars. I don't mean that to be rude but you're more or less reading the same idea on every page.
