This movie had the effect of weakening his love for the game as well as the learning process. His passion for learning was rejuvenated, however, after years of meditation, and reading philosophy and psychology. With this rekindling of the learning process, Waitzkin took up the martial art Tai Chi Chuan at the age of 21 and made rapid progress, winning the 2004 push hands world championship at the age of 27. After reading Joshua's most recent book The Art of Learning, I thought of a million topics I wanted to discuss with him--topics such as being labelled a "child prodigy", blooming, creativi...

Please take some time to read it, and to find at least one thing you are thankful for-it will be good for your health.

Thank you Coert!  Carol Dweck is a professor of Psychology at Stanford University. Last year she published a great book called Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, where she elaborates on her (and ours) key message: the way you view your own intelligence largely determines how it will develop. And no matter how you define "intelligence". In this interview Coert asks Carol Dweck about the book and about what the practical implications of her work are for managers. See a couple of quotes below: - "In my book I identify two mindsets that play important roles in people's success. In one, the fixed mindset, people believe that their talents and abilities are fixed traits. They have a certain amount and that's tha...

Here book Mindset came out last year.What Dweck finds is that young people's expectations about intelligence and achievement affect their performance. Not surprising? Well, you'd still be surprised how kids (and adults) could benefit from a little pep talk in this regard. When it comes to a subject that is difficult, many people underachieve because they think they're not good at it, and they may also have an unrealistic expectation of the work that's required to produce success. When Dweck and her team educated students about the brain, the common negative stereoty...
