Over the years of owning a business, I realized that mindset is half of the process to getting success. It's all about how you perceive the world.
hey, just curious seeing your youtube name, what business do you run?

@Arnnno no no man , change your mindset
You succeed or you learn... there is no fail
Exactly, we have a decision to make when we "fail", to take the lesson or to avoid the learning process and probably do the same mistake twice in the future
@@kyf_ that's what i told myself when I failed a course in my first year
@@anotherdoseyt i did the same when i failed a course my 2nd year 👊🏼
@@kyf_ look at us now 😎
I disagree - you can fail and it's a very positive thing provided you fail forward
Progress ABSOLUTELY beats perfectionism. I have this mantra of " *Something is better than nothing* " and it has worked wonders for building good habits and learning new things. Before that I said "If I'm doing it, I should do it perfectly" and I just failed at getting any better. But once I shifted my mindset, it was all suddenly a lot easier to get healthy, work out, learn a new language, etc.
There's only 1 secret to success- ua-cam.com/video/nyGLzC9vwfY/v-deo.html
You just motivated me to work out!
But if progress “absolutely” beats perfectionism, wouldn’t it have perfected the arts of perfectionism thus creating a paradox ?
@@user-ki7qh5rc4h I like how you think funny man ;-). But nah, progress doesn't perfect the art of perfectionism because progress may be tangible but not fixed in its outcome, i.e. perfect, by virtue of result and definition. The perception of this paradox is subjective to how one perceives perfectionism to begin with - if you think perfectionism is absolute just like in what I've said above, then approaching progress > perfection may be incredibly difficult, since at least with perfectionism 100% is complete by a fixed time variable, if not an outcome-based variable as with progress (where 80% by a fixed time is OK).

I recommend this book to every student! This will literally change people’s lives. In fact, this should be made a text book 😊

I honestly believe self-improvement should be a subject in school. It would be a subject wherein pupils learn how to learn, learn how to be honest about their bad and their good parts and learn to become more self-confident by not seeing your bad things as a lack, but more as something to improve on.
I had to read it at university, loved it!

"Quantity leads to Quality and Progress is more important than perfection."
Exactly what I need now.
Key takeaway: gotta have a growth mindset about our growth mindset

This book changed my life. After reading it, I've started a business, trying to defeat my social anxiety( at this stage I don't even recognize my old self because I've become very outgoing). Thank you carol dweck for this masterpiece.
Everything this guy comes across changes his life i swear

I recently just finished high school and I had a fixed mindset in all the years I was in school which led to the downside of my grades and now that I’m stepping into university my mindset just changed as if I could feel it changing and now I’m doing things I don’t think my old mindset would be able to cope with. I lived most of my life disbelieving in myself but now thanks to the help of your videos i have changed my perception on everything, thank you and regards from Malaysia ❤️🤲🏻

I absolutely LOVE this mindset. When you internalise the idea you can continually grow and improve yourself throughout life, you tap into the power of ENDLESS potential. This is one of the biggest mindset shifts you can adopt to completely transform your life.

Summary:
1. Growth vs fixed mindset
2. Value the effort u put in
3. Progress beats perfection: just because u r good a x does not mean u r good at y
4. Learn from failures with journals
5. It is a gradual journey
It's been a while since I've known Ali's channel, maybe about 3 years, and it's kinda nostalgic... it's heartwarming to see that he always tries his best to make the content the most enjoyable and effective. Btw, loved the new illustrations, you're doing nice, Ali, keep it up!
Great video! Some words to really think about: " I felt like I wasn't a good... because this thing did not come to me effortlessly, when in fact the answer is that I was not a good... because I didn't put effort into the thing" and "progress is more important than perfection" - Ali Abdaal
I loved the line 'quantity leads to quality'. It's so good to remember when you're in the trenches of learning something new and feeling like you're still awful at it. The only way to get better is to keep going at things and practicing. I need to keep being reminded of this as I keep making youtube videos :).
I so much look forward to your book club videos! I have become a book addict over these few months and I enjoy reading and I read each and every book you recommend!
Yes, just finished this book a couple days ago and it really opened and changed how I think towards myself!! such a great book!
I particularly like how this approach is all about accepting one's mediocrity yet extremely motivating and comforting in a healthy way if you know what I mean. Thank you, Ali!
Watched this video with nothing to take away, as I thought I am a growth mindset person anyway.. And 10 seconds later, an epiphany just like yours. There absolutely are areas in my life where I think I had such a fixed mindset. I think I need to put more work into them..
Thank you..
You know it's as good video when you get so inspired you shut it off halfway through and head first into the thing that you were avoiding because you felt "dumb" for trying so hard. Spot on!
That example with the software marketer is a great paradigm shift moment! It's easy to see "experts" execute and go "wow" but oftentimes we don't see all the preparation that comes before hand. Great video Ali!
Thank you for another inspirational video. Going to get the book. You’re my main source of what to read next, thank you. ☺️
Love this...will deffo be getting this book ☺️ thanks, Ali! Also massive congratulations on 2mil! ✨
Whenever I’m feeling down, this dude upload one video! And indeed he gives me kind of eyeopening thought!
When I saw the thumbnail, Immediately Carol Dweck came to mind but the book cover is now different! 🤯
I love it! I actually have it now but the older version will definitely buy this just because of the updated cover lol
Great video as always Ali! 🙌🏼
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 you're really impacting my life positively. Shout out to you bro
I loved the video and it was so inspiring! I have to say as a student this book makes perfect sense because we can't expect any progress or "perfection" if we don't actually apply ourselves to the things we are learning!Remember this: "you don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great!"
Coincidentally i was talking to my cousin about this book,abd I go on UA-cam and boom!! there you are....this is becoming one of my favorite channels keep up the good work
Thoughtful and resonant stuff Ali, great vid!
I wonder, how this man certainly mentions his past videos and any affiliate links every now and then. How the hell he pulls them up in conversation with such an ease. Damn, you are THE BUSINESSMAN!
😁 it is definitely an art and i am guessing it takes practice 🤷🏻♀️
@@intentionalliving7326 Oh dear yes, you need to catch it up, seems a youtuber your are just subed.
Needed this very much today. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this, I was the one who suffering from perfectionism, strive for progress rather than perfectionism is the quote on my desk. I want to read this book.
I had planned to start reading it tomorrow , now ve found a reason to start earlier thanks
This video is very humbling. While watching this my head is nodding and I was smiling. Thank you so much for sharing this 💕
I've just started this book, looking forward to finish if. Also, I've just discovered your channel yesterday and I'm in love with your content. Keep it up.
I am new book lover and this is my first choice to read❤️
Thank you for saving my money and time...
I am satisfied that I had invested my money on right book this is truly helpful😇
That is an exceptional summary @aliabdaal. Thanks for sharing. I loved that you shared that we may have a growth mindset in some parts of our life but still fixed in others. So true and super interesting
just love ur videos man keep up the good work
reading this currently! love the difference between growth mindset vs fixed mindset! What I've discovered is that people could also have both depending on the situation. You could have a fixed mindset about your personality, eg: I don't think I can change my anger issues. But could have growth mindset when it comes to building a skill such as in Ali's case - I can type faster or I can have bigger biceps than Matt D'avela 😛
This is so true! There's a lot of nuance to this idea, and it's great to realize that there could still be areas of your life where we're still in a fixed mindset, or maybe have switched back to a fixed mindset (something I realized I struggled with with my business during the pandemic).
Is it easy for those who don't speak English?
@@raneemdiary3925 Ya, go for it.
I have literally been watching your videos since 9am EST. I typed in Drake to listen to his new album and somehow your stuff popped up and I have not been able to stop. I have since made a Facebook Page and am building a website currently based around myself and my brands. These videos are so well made, thank you!
Great video Ali. The power of reframing and the word “YET” is life changing. Reframe from “I don’t know how to do this” to “I don’t know how to do this YET”. We also need to get past our fear of judgement or we may not even try the first attempt. Wanting to be perfect on our first go, or being worried people will laugh holds many people from their own potential greatness.
Love it, thank you so much for sharing!❤❤
Having the right mindset unlocks so many opportunities! Definitely going to give this a read
I love this series so much its so insightful
Always learning new things from you, Thank you!
I am on the process of reinventing myself and this book is just that I need. Thank you for the recommendation!
When bad memory comes to my mind, I see it as an opportunity to do things that I have to do but have been procrastinating. It also helps me immerse myself in entertaining things when I’m happy without thinking about annoying stuff I have to do knowing when to do those stuff.
This is probably my favorite channel on UA-cam.
Always loved your book summary. Thanks for sharing Ali.
Congrats Ali on 2M subscribers!
Hey thanks a lot Ali. I was just going through a rut before watching this video right now. Things not being in my control and me being pissed at how stupid I am. Now I realize that I am thinking in terms of a fixed mindset. At first that made me feel kinda dumb because I do already know a bit about the growth vs fixed mindset thing. But the 5th takeaway helped in a way. So thanks for doing the video, I appreciate it
Definitely really powerful working on Mindset. We have to start with our mindset to change our lives. If we are stuck in "we can't, it's impossible" mindset then that's exactly what will be delivered. If we move to anything is possible, and we just need to create actions every day towards it then, we start seeing results.
Congratulations on 2M Ali👏
Thanks Ali for making this video.
I added this book to my shelf. Thx for this great summary!
Thanks for your video. This book also changed my life. I overlooked mindset before reading this book, but now I know that mindset is almost everything. : )
This entire channel is a treasure!
Gold.💖 Thanks, Ali!
You're a legend Ali, one of the most influential person out there on internet 👏
It's exactly what was on my mind...great students are originally genius ..and even if I put in so much efforts I won't be able to compete with them. I've got a certain limit !
This book is literally life changing .thank you
Love these recaps! I use these to find books to read, keep up the awesome videos!

Wow awesome video on mindset. Very well articulated .Loved every bit of it ✨
Ohh my GOD how can i make this video appear on my UA-cam feed everyday till time like a reminder!!.. You know what there are always these kind of stuffs our subconscious mind telling us but we never listen or agree unless someone writes a book on it or create a UA-cam episode on this.. We all have a following mindset... Btw thank you for this video... 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💯💯💯💯...
Reading this nowadays! So happy you did a video on this
After reading about the two mindset’s I began viewing people with a filter where I’d segregate them into one of the two mindset’s. And the amount of people I knew that had a fixed mindset was astonishing!
Thank you for this. Was very helpful
Love the point on how much we value effort… and it’s so true that before anything becomes effortless and seemingly “natural” to us, for the vast majority of people, we first need to have put effort into it. Even if you were born with natural talent, if you don’t put in the effort to hone it daily, you’ll eventually lose that talent anyway. 👍

Yea, having a growth mindset is useful in a ton of ways. Because when you are progressing at something it's difficult to see the changes that have been made. But after a while at the thing, when you look back, it seems as if after all it really was worth it. This seems kinda specific but I would say it applies to a lot of things. Such as maybe someone trying to put on muscle or someone trying to get better grades or learning digital art, etc.
I believe that I should improve at this because, I have a fixed mindset when it comes to a lot of things.
Congratulations on 2 mil subs, btw!
Thank you ali bhai for inspiring productivity
Thank you Ali !🙂🙂🙂

Props to Ali for still putting up time stamps 🤙🏻
thanksfor the review will givet his book a read for sure
I'm currently reading this book and this video drops🔥🔥🔥
It all starts with your mindset and your perception of things. Definitely a must-read for everyone who wants to achieve their goals!
🙌🏻 amen sistah ✨
must read or listen (on audible )
I definitely have both mindsets depending on the subject. Room to grow!
I like that book so much, quite solid... Your right, have a growth mindset... Fun watching you Bro...
The production quality is sick, especially with the motion graphics and art work!
# goals 😁🤷🏻♀️
Very good stuff Ali. You remind me a lot of myself. Keep it up 😀
Really good book! We have to constantly be growing in life, no matter on what that is. Our mind, body, career, our bank account etc.. In nature there's no stagnation. I've heard people say "what doesn't grow eventually dies." That being said, we should take our time and enjoy the process! :)
Loved this video! I just completed reading this book and coincidentally came across this video on YT - thank you for sharing this. It is an amazing book

so true about the manager - I think people underestimate how much time does people management require, esp. if you want to grow the team in the right way. Even two hours for the feedback may sometimes not be enough! :)
i'm literally releasing my video that I recorded the other day about this exact same book and topic, yours is MUCH better than mine but i'm not fixed in my mindset to compare myself to you but instead inspired to grow and become at your level. Peace and love to all
Really like those illustrations you've been doing!
Actually i did them, thank you :)
Thank you soo much for uploading these videos during this time. Can u also make a video on how to get out of a rut. I have other videos but I'm looking forward on your methods.
Very nice video! Good life lesson. Maybe a tip or just my approach in taking failure as a learning opportunity. When doing a task be aware of what you're learning what steps you took and what information you learned. To say afterwards "ah but at least we learnt something!" is more abstract than when you can point out what you did learn. Not only to cope with failure but also what did and what did not work. (It also makes an evaluation afterwards easier)
Subscribed love your content
When you teach something, you learn by 90%.... Hence, this video is beneficial to both the audiences as well as Ali 👌
