Book excerpt: From the renowned psychologist who introduced the world to “growth mindset” comes this updated edition of the million-copy bestseller—featuring transformative insights into redefining success, building lifelong resilience, and supercharging self-improvement. “Through clever research studies and engaging writing, Dweck illuminates how our beliefs about our capabilities exert tremendous influence on how we learn and which paths we take in life.”—Bill Gates, GatesNotes “It’s not always the people who start out the smartest who end up the smartest.” After decades of research, world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D., discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she shows how success in school, work, sports, the arts, and almost every area of human endeavor can be dramatically influenced by how we think about our talents and abilities. People with a fixed mindset—those who believe that abilities are fixed—are less likely to flourish than those with a growth mindset—those who believe that abilities can be developed. Mindset reveals how great parents, teachers, managers, and athletes can put this idea to use to foster outstanding accomplishment. In this edition, Dweck offers new insights into her now famous and broadly embraced concept. She introduces a phenomenon she calls false growth mindset and guides people toward adopting a deeper, truer growth mindset. She also expands the mindset concept beyond the individual, applying it to the cultures of groups and organizations. With the right mindset, you can motivate those you lead, teach, and love—to transform their lives and your own.

Download or read book THERAPISTS CREATING A CULTURAL TAPESTRY written by Stephanie L. Brooke and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2015 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exciting text is a comprehensive work that examines the use of art, play, music, dance/movement, and drama in different cultures and with diverse client populations. The editors’ primary purpose is to explore how the creative therapies can be implemented in diverse cultures and in different countries. Renowned, well-credentialed, and professional creative arts therapists in the areas of art, play, music, dance/movement, and drama helped write this collection. Examples include the use of art in working with refugee children in Australia and with Chinese-American children; shared experiences in using dance and movement with Arabic women in Jerusalem, indigenous Inner Mongolia, and with survivors of torture. Other chapters offer stories of using drama in the Netherlands, music and other creative arts in China, play therapy in Appalachia and with different races. Additionally, there are chapters on working with children with learning disabilities as well as the use of creative arts in supervision. Some of the chapters are beautifully complimented with photographs of client works of art or play. The text provides a rich tapestry on how the creative therapies can be used across cultures for issues such as depression and trauma to name a few. Of special interest are the chapters on supervision. Not only a tool for creative art therapists, this informative book will be of special interest to educators, students, therapists, as well as people working in other parts of the world or with culturally diverse clients.
Download or read book Faces of Renewal written by Paul Elbert and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-02-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renewal has always been a concern of God's people. This present volume, a tribute to Pentecostal Bible scholar Stanley M. Horton, offers biblical and historical glimpses into the various facets of renewal throughout the history of the church. It further provides fresh insights into the outworkings of this renewal throughout the history of the church today. Essays examining the biblical themes of renewal include J. G. McConville's study of Renewal as Restoration in Jeremiah and J. Massyngberde Ford's inquiry into the Social and Political Implications of the Miraculous in Acts. Among the essays in Part 2, Historical Studies, Donald Dean Smeeton discusses how William Tyndale was a theologian of renewal. Church historian Richard Lovelace honors Professor Horton with an essay on Baptism in the Holy Spirit and the Evangelical Tradition. Part 3, Contemporary Studies, explores some of the effects of the modern charismatic renewal, including the appearance and growth of loving communities and the impact of renewal movements on society. These essays truly take a new tack towards understanding the various faces of spiritual renewal. They offer the specialist a challenge to see things in a new light, while they afford the non-specialist some practical models of renewal that can affect how he or she views Christian experience. Overall, the editor and respective authors submit this anniversary volume to their colleague and friend, Dr. Stanley M. Horton, and to its readers everywhere with the hope that these sixteen studies may make a useful international contribution to scholarship and that 'Faces of Renewal' may be found helpful to preachers, teachers, and students of God's Word.
