We live in a world that's obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn't knock, there are ways to build a door.

"Hidden Potential" by Adam Grant challenges the common belief that talent is the key to success, suggesting instead that the true secret to achieving greater things lies in our ability to learn and develop character. In a world that celebrates innate gifts, Grant argues that success is less about the genius you’re born with and more about the skills and motivations you cultivate. Drawing on a vast array of examples, from classrooms and boardrooms to the Olympics and outer space, he shows that the path to success isn’t determined by hard work alone but by how effectively we learn and evolve over time.

Grant offers a framework for unlocking hidden potential, with actionable strategies and insights that help people from all walks of life enhance their skills and improve their performance. He emphasizes that growth is a lifelong process, and that the key to true success lies not in talent, but in the character we develop. By focusing on self-improvement, building the right motivational structures, and creating environments that nurture overlooked potential, Grant argues we can all rise to new challenges and achieve greatness.

In this book, Grant debunks the myth of the "natural-born genius" and provides a fresh perspective on potential—one that is developed, not fixed. Rather than focusing on external accolades or the end goal, the true measure of our potential is the journey we take to get there. Hidden Potential encourages readers to rethink their limits and realize that opportunity can be created, even when it doesn't come knocking.
