A key to motivation- from @theofficialcaroldweck "Mindset" - there's a big difference between the two perceptions of failure- One destroys motivation and leads to helplessness, while the other is an action that can be corrected. Generally, students who are self motivated have an understanding that their failures are the results of (in)action. Students who identify as "failures" will find no reason to expend effort- after all, effort doesn't change their identity. #SmartAndLazy #growthmindset #caroldweck #psychology #educationpsychology #motivation (at San Diego, California)
