by James Clear<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Life<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

People think when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way.

by Daniel Kahneman<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is there more chance we’ll believe something if it’s in a bold type face? Why are judges more likely to deny parole before lunch? Why do we assume a good-looking person will be more competent?

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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. 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
