Recommended books.
"Mindset: The New Psychology of Success" is a non-fiction book by Carol S. Dweck, a renowned psychologist. In this groundbreaking work, Dweck explores the concept of mindset and its profound impact on success and achievement. She introduces the idea of two main mindsets: the fixed mindset and the growth mindset. Individuals with a fixed mindset believe that their abilities and intelligence are fixed traits, leading them to avoid challenges and view failure as a reflection of their inherent limitations. On the other hand, individuals with a growth mindset believe that their abilities can be developed through dedication and effort, leading them to embrace challenges and view failure as an opportunity for growth.
