495: Turning the Power of Mindset Into Action with Eduardo Briceño

When the topic of the book your writing centers around mindset, and the one and only Carol Dweck (author of Mindset: The Psychology of Success) gives it a glowing endorsement, then yours is a book worth paying attention to. Such is the case for my guest today, Eduardo Briceño. His new book, out now, is called The Performance Paradox: Turning the Power of Mindset Into Action. To succeed in a fast-changing world, Eduardo says, individuals and companies know they must create a culture of growth, where experimentation and feedback are encouraged, and learning is integrated into the everyday. Yet we often get stuck in a well-worn pattern of habits that don’t move us forward. Why?Because many of us get trapped in the Performance Paradox: the counterintuitive phenomenon that if we focus only on performing, our performance suffers.How can we give ourselves the space to experiment and grow while also delivering high-level results? That is the ultimate question Eduardo’s book, and today’s episode, attempt to answer. I hope you’ll click the play button below to learn more about Eduardo and his work.
