How To Adopt A Success Mindset

Fear . . . that pesky word drives so much of our life. But what if we told our minds and our hearts to exchange "fear" for an even more powerful word? Faith.

Retired before age forty after climbing the ladder of many business-industry titans like ZipRecruiter and GoHire, author Mandy Schaniel knows that success comes from within. It is a mindset, and half the battle of building a success mindset stems from faith. Not just in a spiritual sense—though the two go hand-in-hand—but faith in your calling, your skills, and above all else, yourself.

From identifying your purpose to understanding your leadership style, Mandy explains the keys needed to strengthen our whole selves for success. Filled with her personal stories of triumphs, failures, and mentorship moments, Faith Over Fear: How to Adopt a Success Mindset is sure to make you laugh, feel uplifted, and inspire you to make moves toward your summit. The climb is not easy—it never is—but Mandy's wisdom will help you to harness your faith, get over your fear, and build a mindset powerful enough to move mountains. 

“In her four-plus years at ZipRecruiter, Mandy brought a contagious positivity and inspiration to everyone she interacted with. So it's no surprise that her first book, Faith Over Fear, is an absolute gem. It's filled with personal reflections and practical advice to help others harness the power of a growth mindset and chart a path to their own definition of success, one micro-goal at a time. Mandy provides many actionable insights to help anyone overcome their fears and make a lasting, positive impact on their life and the lives of those around them!"

WARD POULOS | Cofounder of ZipRecruiter

"I've known Mandy since before she joined ZipRecruiter in 2012. She was my account executive, and it was clear on our first meeting she had the 'right stuff.' Mandy is truly fearless, taking on one seemingly insurmountable task after another and crushing it. She is truly an inspiration to young women, showing her innate ability to jump over every barrier and excelling in—and sometimes out of—her lane to get the job done.”

"Mandy has been revered in our industry as an executive that creates success wherever she goes. And now she lets us in on her secret: that success is a state of mind. Faith Over Fear leaves us with lessons that we can all apply to our personal and professional journeys."

RYAN CHRISTOI | President of Recruitics

“Mandy’s personal story on learning to create and find success is a must-read roadmap for our own self-discovery and removing our limitations personally and professionally. As someone who has known Mandy for nearly 15 years, her willingness to share her own story and vulnerability is honest and inspiring. She has blazed trails as a woman in a fast-growing startup in tech and continues to inspire others to take responsibility for all we do—good or bad—in order to achieve our goals and dreams. Faith Over Fear is a book for every business owner, professional and person who has struggled with making the leap and removing those very individual constraints within our own selves that can hold us back. Everything is possible when you put your faith over fear.”

“Fear is real. It can and will consume you unless you know how to change it into faith. Life is short. When you know you have unfinished business or you’re holding back from who you know you can be, when you know you can have the life you want and can contribute to your family, your community and the world, you need to adopt Mandy’s Faith Success Mindset. I met Mandy while she was still in college and was fortunate to hire and mentor her through her early career. She has a drive and business acumen that is compassionate but results oriented. She is a true role model for all—but especially for women—navigating a male-dominated business world. I’ve been fortunate to watch Mandy succeed, and I now have the privilege of having Mandy as a business advisor . . . and great friend.”

JONATHAN DUARTE | Founder/CEO of GoHire

"Faith Over Fear by Mandy Schaniel is a must-read for those seeking a success mindset. Drawing from her experience as a business leader, Mandy shares personal stories and lays out keys to strengthen oneself for success, with a focus on faith, purpose, and leadership. Having worked with her since 2013, I appreciate her authentic writing and practical advice that make it easy for readers to follow in her footsteps."
