Mindset

by Dr. Carol Dweck

Do you have a fixed mindset, or a growth mindset?  Thru many research studies, Dr. Dweck found that those with a fixed mindset viewed the world and accomplishments very differently than those with a growth mindset. People with a growth mindset seek out challenge and thrive on it. They acknowledge failure as a painful experience, but they know that it doesn't define them. Read this book to help you develop a growth mindset for all areas of your life.
