Hard Work Sweat And Tears
A simple list of must-read books if you’re interested in performance and improvement for self and others.
By no means complete, there are many many others
Carol Dweck- Mindset
“Dweck reveals what all great parents, teachers, CEOs, and athletes already know: how a simple idea about the brain can create a love of learning and a resilience that is the basis of great accomplishment in every area.”
Matthew Syed – Bounce
‘I love this book. A must-read if you have ever wondered what sets the super-achievers and the rest of us apart – in any field, not just in sport. I only wish I had read it when I was fifteen.’ Gabby Logan, BBC presenter and former international gymnast
Daniel Coyle – The Talent Code
Talent. You’ve either got it or you haven’t.’ Not true, actually.
Daniel Coyle – The Little Book Of Talent
“The Little Book of Talent” should be given to every graduate at commencement, every new parent in a delivery room, every executive on the first day of work. It is a guidebook–beautiful in its simplicity and backed by hard science–for nurturing excellence.”—Charles Duhigg, bestselling author of “The Power of Habit”
Malcolm Gladwell – Outliers
Why do some people achieve so much more than others? Can they lie so far out of the ordinary? Malcolm Gladwell looks at everyone from rock stars to scientific geniuses to show that the story of success is far more surprising, and inspiring, than we ever imagined.
