Mindset (Kindle Edition)

This is a digital book. You'll need a Kindle device or the free Kindle app to read it. It's 422 pages long, so there's a good amount of material here if you're looking to dig into self-help topics.

What It's About

The core idea is about how you view your own abilities. Do you think your intelligence and talents are fixed, or can they be developed? Carol Dweck calls these the fixed mindset and the growth mindset. The book explores how these beliefs shape what you do in school, at work, and in your relationships. It's for people who feel stuck and want to understand why some people bounce back from failures and others don't. If you want to change how you handle challenges, this might give you some angles to consider.
