After decades of research, world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol S. Dweck discovered a simple but groundbreaking idea: the power of mindset. In this brilliant book, she describes 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. In this edition, Dweck offers new insights into her now famous and broadly embraced concept.

Every day, the world seemingly invents new challenges for us in the form of new situations, new energetic exchanges, and new lessons. That also means that each day ends up screaming at us - in its own unique way - with the demand to keep up. Keep up with the cleaning, keep up with your job and your boss, keep up with your partner or your love life, keep up with your pets or your kids, keep up, keep up, and keep up. After a while, all that action and tension can certainly start to get to you.

If you ask a Finn, they will likely be as baffled as you are. That’s why Melanie Dower, an expat who has been living in Finland for the past decade, has taken up the charge. Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.
