DweckTo achieve any form of success in your personal or professional life, a strong belief in yourself and your capabilities is the first key ingredient you must have. Developing a strong belief in yourself, a positive mindset, is very important. If you want success in important areas of your life, you simply must believe in your ability to better yourself“This is something I know for a fact: You have to work hardest for the things you love most.”Carol Dweck’s book, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, is the most informative and actionable book on how to develop a healthy self-esteem—a strong and positive mindset—that cements belief in your growth.If you’re interested in this book you can get 2 audiobooks for free with a trial of audible using the link in the description of this video.

From her research on the subject of achievement, she discovered that what someone believes of his or her ability is fundamental to the kind and level of success one can achieve. It is from this research that she unearthed the two mindsets.Her book talks about both mindsets and offers readers invaluable insight into how best to become growth-minded and apply the positive mindset in all areas of their life including parenting, career, and interpersonal relations.“A growth mindset is belief you can develop abilities.”This book summary outlines the most actionable strategies discussed in Dweck’s book:Lesson 1: Growth Requires EffortWhat is more important, effort or ability? Ability vs. effort is one of the most defining characteristics of Dweck’s book. In fact, Dweck main area of focus—in her research and in the book—is illustrating how, through effort, a positive belief in the ability to better ourselves, those with a growth mindset can achieve far more than those who with a fixed mindset, the belief that ability is constant.“No matter what your ability is, effort is what ignites that ability and turns it into accomplishment.”When you believe that ability or talent is all it takes to accomplish, achieve, or attain, this belief actually hinders your personal growth because when you believe that ability is a fixed trait, you essentially diminish the value of learning, growing, and developing through consistent effort.A fundamental aspect of the growth mindset, the topic Dweck concentrates on disseminating, is the strong belief that all growth or improvement requires effort.When you have a fixed mindset instead of a growth one, you associate your ability or ‘talent’ to your self-esteem/self-identity, which is not healthy because when you attach your self-identity to your abilities, you shun challenges that may lead to failure, which denies you a chance to improve.“Becoming is better than being”Lesson 2: Change Your Life By Adopting A Growth MindsetDweck does an amazing job of illustrating the power of a growth mindset. She also does an amazing job of showing her readers how to shift their mindset from a fixed one to a growth one.The most life-changing information Carol Dweck shares is that it is possible to have a growth in some areas of your life and a fixed mindset in other areas.“It’s also important to realize that even if people have a fixed mindset, they’re not always in that mindset. In fact, in many of our studies, we put people into a growth mindset. We tell them that an ability can be learned and that the task will give them a chance to do that or we have them read a scientific article that teaches them the growth mindset. The article describes people who did not have natural ability, but who developed exceptional skills. These experiences make our research participants into growth-minded thinkers, at least for the moment — and they act like growth-minded thinkers, too.”From these discussions, Carol concludes that the best way to change your life is to change your perspective (mindset); instead of seeing your “abilities” as fixed, start seeing your life—and all your undertakings–as malleable, something you can learn from and through commendable effort, grow through. The best and easiest way to change your life is by changing how you look at your circumstances and life in general.“Mindsets are an important part of your personality, but you can change them. Just by knowing about the two mindsets, you can start thinking and reacting in new ways. People tell me that they start to catch themselves when they are in the throes of the fixed mindset — passing up a chance for learning, feeling labeled by a failure, or getting discouraged when something requires a lot of effort. And then they switch themselves into the growth mindset — making sure they take the challenge, learn from the failure, or continue their effort. “ConclusionAlways be taking consistent action towards your aims.“Effort is what ignites that ability and turns it into accomplishment.”I hope that was useful, have a great day!I release new videos often, if you’re interested in subscribing here’s a link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfbLDMh6uGOZePAfqqjVZ-g?sub_confirmation=1I've made over 60 summaries of the best self improvement books, the links are below.Full playlist of them all here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOImyOGN9UE&list=PLaNTB6oQAa0AYuul0tqUscg1ZLj_arZgaHere are the links:Make Your Bed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7mBNcI2H1c The power of the subconscious mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNi9zDGaZtw Getting things done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCNN2pyO5Yc The power of intention: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ezM3fIKHTY Deep work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SOQpjHKESA The magic of thinking big: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdQRQ82AED8 The alchemist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcQjBghtxMU Blink: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rie9Pkp4Ktk Atomic Habits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6u0X0CDEqU The E-Myth Revisited: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctHTVZRnE7g Mindset: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QU5Q3lyTqo The art of war: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_5qhA2y-E4 Rework: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsaZU-HW18k The lean startup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6QPZp--lJE The hard thing about hard things: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yl_Q3E5d33U Crush it!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onbmkc-29KI Delivering Happiness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiUWCZkHbA8 The personal MBA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFpXccN3YEU The $100 startup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqa1LqahOLE Zero to One: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGtQjkSUahc Grit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doUSy1Eo76s Start with why: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgMnlf4jcYY The compound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nSIiAMnDY0 The Prince: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzVmhWFdwBQ The willpower instinct: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jz5EXLYxWDQ The slight edge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sItMk2xS_ZU Meditations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul2nuHOnCPI Who moved my cheese?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQhJkIPHiyw The One Thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cS5lgHhbUoM The richest man in babylon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbnHlWFnWLs The power of habit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d366w-o8nhA Secrets of the millionaire mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1WjeoCw30g The 6 pillars of self esteem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5NRiB_-w10 The 7 Habits of Highly Effective people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nGzZ9m_Xsg Thinking Fast and Slow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqw9dwxiKSw The 4 hour work week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCWzSlAqO0g The power of positive thinking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAdxM_19KBc The power of now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa7mAlLhD3w Think and grow rich: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btQNKjSy8Ww 12 rules of life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9InBOOy1eTU The 5 love languages: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPq4Vxh74jY Rich Dad Poor Dad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV31Wpr2Fl8 How to win friends and influence people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s61o8y22BpM The inside out revolution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68OwvuqZEGo Models: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs0d7Da8ufo Man’s search for meaning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyXFQ5W0bMk The subtle art of not giving a fuck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOImyOGN9UE How to stop worrying and start living: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUQXrEk52Ug The millionaire fastlane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrtjXONWVfA 5 extremely powerful techniques to master motivation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmRzDIisUeM Quiet by Susan Cain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzRcYLq63dU Extreme Ownership: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMWeEyqWHe0 see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
