2.0

"It was okay" sums up my feelings about this book entirely. Dweck asserts some good points, of course, but nothing that could be considered "new" or "groundbreaking." OF COURSE people who are willing to try new things have a better shot at fuller, happier and more enriching lives; OF COURSE people who pigeonhole themselves wind up stifled and sad.

Maybe it's just because self-help isn't my particular bag, but I felt like responding with a good old 1990s style "DUH" to every single chapter.
