What do you believe about intelligence? Do you believe that intelligence is fixed? That is, either you have it or you don’t? Or do you believe that intelligence can be developed?
Dr. Carol Dweck explores these two mindsets about intelligence in her book “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success“. This is not your everyday, run-of-the-mill self-help book. This is a well researched, thought-provoking book that explores how having a certain mindset determines how you feel about challenges, obstacles, effort, criticism, and the success of others.
Dr. Dweck’s research is transformational.
To capture the essence of the two mindsets, the fixed mindset and the growth mindset, I’ve created a mindmap.
