Hey, I am just reading a great book called "Mindset - the new psychology of success" by Carol Dweck. She identifies the belief many have that talent, intellect or any number of things are given and cannot be developed. This is the fixed mindset and contrasts with the growth mindset where everything can be developed. This seems like an extreme expression of belief - if you don't think you can grow/improve then why bother to work hard? You also have to be proving yourself all the time as these talents can become a measure of worth. It is an interesting read! Jerry Hi Andy – I have found your blog again!
