Think Again's #1 New York Times bestselling author shows us how to reach new heights with both ourselves and other people.
The world we live in is talent-obsessed. We honor natural athletes in athletics, brilliant kids in the classroom, and young musical prodigies. But we tend to forget how far we ourselves can go when we admire others who are born with natural advantages. We underestimate our capacity for learning and our potential for improvement. All of us are capable of improving. And there are ways to construct a door in the event that opportunity doesn't knock.
A novel paradigm for boosting expectations and going above and beyond is provided by Hidden Potential. Adam Grant skillfully combines cutting-edge research, unexpected revelations, and engaging storytelling to transport us from the classroom to the boardroom, the Olympic arena to subterranean space. He demonstrates that learning effectiveness is more important for advancement than work ethic. Development is more about the character you build than it is about your brilliance. Grant looks at how to develop the motivational frameworks and character traits needed to reach our own potential as well as how to set up systems that provide those who have been marginalized and disregarded chances.
Numerous authors have documented the routines of celebrities who achieve remarkable feats. This book shows how everyone can rise above and accomplish more. The distance you've ascended to reach your destination, not the summit's height, is the real indicator of your potential.
