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 jeopardize
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.
