Jim's Review
Ever think you're just a fixed worm — good at reading, bad at not being stepped on? Dweck's growth mindset argues you can learn far more than you think. The research is compelling, especially the studies with kids and praise. Gets a little repetitive across domains (sports, business, relationships), but the core insight is genuinely life-changing. Four worms for rewiring how you think about talent.
