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. What makes some individuals and brands succeed whilst others don’t? What are the common mindset problems with projects that fail? How can you create a framework that sets you up to get traction and win? How can you make your work or yourself the obvious choice? This 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. We dive into first principles thinking and use physics and the nature of reality to explain the fundamental laws behind why individuals succeed and fail. - - - On 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. Through 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. - - - Connect with Sam Webster Harris 🧘‍♀️ Newsletter: https://explosivethinking.substack.com/ 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/samjamharris 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/samjam.zen/ - - - Stay up to date: 🤓🤓🤓 💡 Podsite: https://www.growthmindsetpodcast.com/ Epic books on growth 📚📚🐐 🏃‍♀️ Atomic Habits: https://amzn.to/3O1F5MC 🧠 Mindset, psychology of success: https://amzn.to/42nYDzj 💰 Psychology of Money: https://amzn.to/3nNnXzs - - - Show: Growth Mindset, psychology of self-improvement Episode: Scientific strategies for success and standing out 00:00 Physics and First principles thinking 00:50 Framework for determining success 01:31 Learning from the concept of Density 05:16 Understanding your environment and competition 07:44 ADVERT 09:10 Adapting to change 10:55 Pushing against a solid wall 13:59 Copying Can never give the same results 16:11 Context is everything 17:17 Outro Topics Growth 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 Learn more about your ad choices.
