Description

In today’s episode, we’re rounding out January - the season of goal setting - with 4 of the most interesting and provocative paradigms that I have learned about when it comes to “success.” Collectively, they make up what I call a success mindset. The four topics and their sources:

1. Growth Mindset - Mindset by Carol Dweck
   
2. Passion is developed / Rare & valuable skills are the key - So Good They Can’t Ignore You by Cal Newport
   
3. You don’t have to be the best at everything - Talent Stack by Scott Adams
   
4. Success is chosen, every day, through intentional habits - High Performance Habits by Brendon Bruchard
   

I find value in all of these messages, and there’s a little bit more woowoo in me. So while I think all of these are true - with the central theme here being that you can create, develop, and choose success for yourself regardless of your starting point - there is some nuance.

This “success mindset” when paired with your curiosity and interest and joy is where you’ll see the most fulfillment.
