A review by andreahrome
Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck

This book took me forever to read, and I finally finished by plowing through the audiobook.
Initially, I put it down because it was a gift from a workplace I burned out at… and a constant reminder that if I had a growth mindset, maybe I wouldn’t have left…
Maybe true, maybe not, but the book felt tainted by association.
Upon try #2, I appreciated the idea… fairly simple, and the numerous examples. Most helpful was recognizing I am not binary- my fixed mindset can flare up based on triggering situations- and it helps to be aware of it so it doesn’t get the better of me.
Will carry these ideas forward and continue to grow!
