When we see someone excel in some field, and achieve amazing things, what do we think of that excellence, and success ?
We usually tend to think of that person as a genius, a gifted or talented individual, who demolishes challenges, succeeding at every turn. Because their capabilities and skills are innate, and success comes easy in that case.
But is that the true picture, or is there more to it than that ?
We explore the Iceberg Illusion of Success, and find out about the facts and myths associated with excellence, and success !
This Course delves deep into the ingredients for excellence and expertise, based on the research and findings from Neuroscience and Psychology. It covers the popular concepts of Neuroplasticity, the Fixed and Growth Mindsets, 10,000 Hours, Deliberate and Purposeful Practice, Grit, Agility, and Resilience.
