Mindset is one of those rare books that can help you make positive changes in your life and at the same time see the world in a new way.
A leading expert in motivation and personality psychology, Carol Dweck has discovered in more than twenty years of research that our mindset is not a minor personality quirk: it creates our whole mental world. It explains how we become optimistic or pessimistic. It shapes our goals, our attitude toward work and relationships, and how we raise our kids, ultimately predicting whether or not we will fulfill our potential. Dweck has found that everyone has one of two basic mindsets.
If you have the fixed mindset, you believe that your talents and abilities are set in stone–either you have them or you don’t. You must prove yourself over and over, trying to look smart and talented at all costs. This is the path of stagnation. If you have a growth mindset, however, you know that talents can be developed and that great abilities are built over time. This is the path of opportunity–and success.
Dweck demonstrates that mindset unfolds in childhood and adulthood and drives every aspect of our lives, from work to sports, from relationships to parenting. She reveals how creative geniuses in all fields–music, literature, science, sports, business–apply the growth mindset to achieve results. Perhaps even more important, she shows us how we can change our mindset at any stage of life to achieve true success and fulfillment. She looks across a broad range of
applications and helps parents, teachers, coaches, and executives see how they can promote the growth mindset.
Highly engaging and very practical, Mindset breaks new ground as it leads you to change how you feel about yourself and your future.
“This book is an essential read for parents, teachers, coaches, and others who are instrumental in determining a child’s mind-set, and in turn, his or her future success, as well as for those who would like to increase their own feelings of success and fulfillment.” --Library Journal

“良好的开端是成功的一半。” 看到柏拉图的这句脍炙人口的名言,你有什么感想呢? 对于我来说,这句话让我感到非常兴奋。看!成功啊,是多么地容易!需要的仅仅是一个好的开头而已。 然而,事与愿违的是,这句话并没有给我带来成功,反倒是引来了拖延症。 仔细想想,其中的原...

评分1 前几天,发生的一件小事,引发了我和老公之间的“热战”。 他们公司每年都会报一定住宅面积的采暖费。种种原因,我们今年没有采暖费发票。于是,老公就用同事多余的收据开了发票。问题是,对方在开票时,没有按公司财务制度,注明单价、房屋面积等项目,还得重新换张发票。 ...
评分通读的第6本英文书, 中英双语阅读。 改变自己,可以从情感/行动/认知三个维度入手。我有比较强的情感驱动力,也有一定的行动力,但在认知层面的自我反思比较少,也不得其法。这本书对比「固定型思维」与「成长型思维」,给了我一个很好的角度去重新认识自己和现实的关系。对现在的我有用。当然读书只是一个开头,要在生活里实践运用了才算数。我有实践心得的时候会分享具体的实例。 要想进步,前提是「自我负责」。No one is coming. 这是一个学习和追求的过程。不会有幻想中的一劳永逸。「固定型思维」就像少年派面对的老虎一样,你要live with it。你甚至可以不需要具体的人的认可,对自己要有标准和耐心,一点一点地改变和积累。时间会有结果。
评分成长型思维。
评分3/5. 略低于预期,主要原因还是觉得太过鸡汤,以及文笔一般。全书的内容其实几篇论文应该就可以讲的很清楚,在 Growth Mindset vs. Fixed Mindset 这个主题上作者褒贬分明,但书中的例子似乎总是太过简单和不现实,因而难以令人信服。尽管如此,如果中学甚至更早的时候我就能明白这些道理的话,也不必自己走这么多弯路、经历那么多自我怀疑了。
评分2019年读得最慢的一本书,内容不难,做到很难;A reminder!
评分一边倒的思维似乎不够critical,但是也足够成为一本好书。
