Best Selling Books by Carol Dweck

World-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck, in decades of research on achievement and success, has discovered a truly groundbreaking idea-the power of our mindset. Dweck explains why it''s not just our abilities and talent that bring us success-but whether we approach them with a fixed or growth mindset. She makes clear why praising intelligence and ability doesn''t foster self-esteem and lead to accomplishment, but may actually jeopardize success. With the right mindset, we can motivate our kids and help them to raise their grades, as well as reach our own goals-personal and professional. Dweck reveals what all great parents, teachers, CEOs, and athletes already know: how a simple idea about the brain can create a love of learning and a resilience that is the basis of great accomplishment in every area.

Aprenda como potenciar a autoestima, a motivação e a capacidade de concentração. Mais de 2 milhões de livros vendidos Existem dois tipos de atitudes mentais — e só uma leva ao sucesso Carol S. Dweck, especialista internacional em Sucesso e Motivação, desenvolveu ao longo da sua carreira uma ideia deveras inovadora — o poder do nosso mindset, a atitude mental com que abordamos a vida, influencia decisivamente o êxito pessoal e profissional. Existem dois tipos de atitudes mentais: a fixa e a progressiva. Quem tem a primeira acredita que o talento e as capacidades são definidos à partida e não se alteram ao longo da vida. Este é o caminho para a estagnação e a desmotivação. Por outro lado, quem tem atitude mental progressiva acredita que o talento pode ser desenvolvido, com tempo e persistência. Este é o caminho da oportunidade — e do sucesso. A autora mostra, de forma prática e simples, como é possível fomentar uma atitude mental progressiva em qualquer altura da vida, potenciando a autoestima, a motivação e a capacidade de concentração, e gerando resiliência e paixão pela aprendizagem — a base dos grandes feitos em todas as áreas. Os elogios da crítica: «Carol S. Dweck estuda a maneira como o modo de pensar a nossa relação com o talento influencia o que fazemos com ele e como o potenciamos. Um livro excelente.» Miguel Pina e Cunha, Professor na Nova School of Business and Economics «Carol descreve como aquilo de que acreditarmos ser capazes influencia de forma determinante os caminhos que escolhemos na vida.» Bill Gates
