Mindset Mastery is about what you believe about your own ability at work, and how those beliefs shape what you do after a setback, a mistake or a hard review. Chapter 1 describes two beliefs about ability, the belief that an ability is fixed and the belief that it can develop, and what research shows about each. Later chapters use its tools.
