Often the way we try to achieve success is doomed from the start, so today we are going to break down the science of success.\n\nWhat makes some individuals and brands succeed whilst others don\u2019t?\n\nWhat are the common mindset problems with projects that fail?\n\nHow can you create a framework that sets you up to get traction and win?\n\nHow can you make your work or yourself the obvious choice?\n\n\nThis episode is especially useful for entrepreneurs and creatives wanting their projects to stand out and gain an audience. It will also help individuals who want to stand out in their careers and work smarter, not harder.\nWe dive into first principles thinking and use physics and the nature of reality to explain the fundamental laws behind why individuals succeed and fail.\n- - -\nOn the growth mindset podcast with Sam Webster Harris, we explore the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, purpose, and growth through the lens of self-improvement. Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create.\nThrough a process of honest self-reflection of what is holding us back and what is driving us forward, we can lose the ego and build awareness of how to be the best we can be.\n- - -\nConnect with Sam Webster Harris\n\U0001f9d8\u200d\u2640\ufe0f Newsletter: https://explosivethinking.substack.com/\n\U0001f426 Twitter: https://twitter.com/samjamharris\n\U0001f4f8 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samjam.zen/\n- - -\nStay up to date: \U0001f913\U0001f913\U0001f913\n\U0001f4a1 Podsite: https://www.growthmindsetpodcast.com/\nEpic books on growth \U0001f4da\U0001f4da\U0001f410\n\U0001f3c3\u200d\u2640\ufe0f Atomic Habits: https://amzn.to/3O1F5MC\n\U0001f9e0 Mindset, psychology of success: https://amzn.to/42nYDzj\n\U0001f4b0 Psychology of Money: https://amzn.to/3nNnXzs\n- - -\nShow: Growth Mindset, psychology of self-improvement\nEpisode: Scientific strategies for success and standing out\n00:00 Physics and First principles thinking\n00:50 Framework for determining success\n01:31 Learning from the concept of Density\n05:16 Understanding your environment and competition\n07:44 ADVERT\n09:10 Adapting to change\n10:55 Pushing against a solid wall\n13:59 Copying Can never give the same results\n16:11 Context is everything\n17:17 Outro\n\nTopics\nGrowth mindset, Psychology of success, Excel in career, Stand out against competition, first principles thinking, Success strategy, Business growth, Personal growth, Understanding context, Competition analysis, Creative success, What makes a podcast stand out, Improve your writing, Laws of nature, Consumer behaviour\n \nLearn more about your ad choices.
