I Decided To Praise My Son Not When He Succeeded At Things He Was Already Good At, But When He Persevered With Things That He Found Difficult. I Stressed To Him That By Struggling, Your Brain Grows. Between The Deep Body Of Research On The Field Of Learning Mindsets And This Personal Experience With My Son, I Am More Convinced Than Ever That Mindsets Toward Learning Could Matter More Than Anything Else We Teach.
