Mindset


Book Description

From the renowned psychologist who introduced the world to “growth mindset” comes this updated edition of the million-copy bestseller—featuring transformative insights into redefining success, building lifelong resilience, and supercharging self-improvement. “Through clever research studies and engaging writing, Dweck illuminates how our beliefs about our capabilities exert tremendous influence on how we learn and which paths we take in life.”—Bill Gates, GatesNotes “It’s not always the people who start out the smartest who end up the smartest.” After decades of research, world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D., discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she shows how success in school, work, sports, the arts, and almost every area of human endeavor can be dramatically influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities. People with a fixed mindset—those who believe that abilities are fixed—are less likely to flourish than those with a growth mindset—those who believe that abilities can be developed. Mindset reveals how great parents, teachers, managers, and athletes can put this idea to use to foster outstanding accomplishment. In this edition, Dweck offers new insights into her now famous and broadly embraced concept. She introduces a phenomenon she calls false growth mindset and guides people toward adopting a deeper, truer growth mindset. She also expands the mindset concept beyond the individual, applying it to the cultures of groups and organizations. With the right mindset, you can motivate those you lead, teach, and love—to transform their lives and your own.




When Children Love to Learn


Book Description

They're hallmarks of childhood. The endless "why" questions. The desire to touch and taste everything. The curiosity and the observations. It can't be denied-children have an inherent desire to know. Teachers and parents can either encourage this natural inquisitiveness or squelch it. There is joy in the classroom when children learn-not to take a test, not to get a grade, not to compete with each other, and not to please their parents or their teachers-but because they want to know about the world around them! Both Christian educators and parents will find proven help in creating a positive learning atmosphere through methods pioneered by Charlotte Mason that show how to develop a child's natural love of learning. The professional educators, administrators, and Mason supporters contributing to this volume give useful applications that work in a variety of educational settings, from Christian schools to homeschools. A practical follow-up to Crossway's For the Children's Sake, this book follows a tradition of giving serious thought to what education is, so that children will be learning for life and for everlasting life.

Angelize


Book Description

My name is Yvette Marina Nario, and I was born in New York City and raised in California throughout my middle school and high school years. At four years of age, I questioned both my parents, "Why are we living if we are going to die?" My deep yearning for understanding the unknown and discovering the truth or real purpose for living has been a quest I've always sought and continue to do so as I delve into the forward motion of the hourglass. As a child, in grade school, I was always very quiet and unconventional for the right reasons of breeding truth and morality, as I do remember throwing an apple at the principal because he didn't want to bring me home because I didn't like the fact that my first-grade teacher yelled at my sister, Michelle, for no logical reason. After we made an agreement, the principal ended up driving me back home in the condition I come back to school the next morning as a fully participating student. I have and I will always be one to keep my word when it comes to making promises; that's how real I am. I remember growing up, I've always been very shy, collective, sensitive, at certain points chaotic (for right reasons), and observant. It wasn't until I grew into California's people and environment that I've gained more of a personal discovery and deep analysis of my inner core. By what may seem as warping in time to the west, as schematics to find myself, I finally felt as if I was at a place called home inside my inner spirits and outside of my physical body. My inner me was in the comfort zone (I so longed searched for since moment of conception) where I needed to be and used as a tool to help direct me into the future: on the right path that was already willed for me as I felt in my heart-mind (only because of my heartbeats). I met my high school sweetheart at fourteen years of age and have experienced seventeen years of forever growing love/friendship, human development, business success, and family bliss. I have born two beautiful stars, Angelo and Eliza (my Angelize), as a result of the first significant and planned (from above) chapters of my life. My Angelize are my everything, my world, the heart of my life, and the main reason I needed to fulfill my first mission (accounts), my first story of my book. I would have to describe myself as a late bloomer (big time).
