Mindset: The New Psychology Of Success

Mindset: The New Psychology Of Success
Carol Dweck work proposes a theory of the difference between those who succeed and those who didn't. As the title of the book reveals it is all about Mindset. Dweck work is interesting, not sure of how scientifically thorough since the book is mainly anecdotal, yet his theory makes perfect sense and is easy to relate to personal life.

After covering the the ground for her theory, Dweck offers specific advice for sports, business, personal relationships, teachers and parents, and individuals. Her ideas are easy to understand, somehow difficult to implement since they require a change of habits, and worth trying.

Dweck ideas complement other frameworks like Angela Dockworth and Paul Tough on Grit and others on Resilience.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
