Picture your brain forming new connections as you meet the challenge and learn. Keep on going.

Your failures and misfortunes don't threaten other people. . .It's your assets and your successes that are problems for people who derive their self-esteem from being superior.

The wrong kind of praise creates self-defeating behavior. The right kind motivates students to learn.

I don’t mind losing as long as I see improvement or I feel I’ve done as well as I possibly could.

You have to work hardest for the things you love most.

More and more research is suggesting that, far from being simply encoded in the genes, much of personality is a flexible and dynamic thing that changes over the life span and is shaped by experience.

It’s for you to decide whether change is right for you right now. Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. But either way keep the growth mindset in your thoughts then when you bump up against obstacles you can turn to it, it will always be there for you showing you a path into the future.
