We teach growth mindset at our school and teach students the benefit of having a growth mindset as opposed to a fixed mindset. So, this book really wasn’t new information, but nonetheless- always motivating and refreshing for me to read a “self-help” book! Even though a lot seemed common sense, and what I already believe… I still considered it a good read.

This book was recommended to me by one of my jiujitsu instructors. I resisted because I'm not a fan of the self-help genre but I ended up really loving it. It's also helping me to understand a frustrating situation at work.
This was excellent and very helpful.

Fantastic insights into a way to change one's outlook. I appreciate the overall concept and there is definitely a need for this change in mindset, but my concern is the the author doesn't give enough practical strategies. This may prove to be tough for some readers trying to change their perspective but there are some clear ways, just not enough to continue. As a whole, the writing was a little disjointed but it's worthy of reading and discussing.

4 stars for the idea, 3 stars for her writing
This book did a good job on explaining and applying the growth and fixed mindset concept. However, Dr Carol Dweck’s writing style didn’t engaging, I was bored half of the time because she repeated the same concept A LOT. I respect this book because it changed my mindset
