IntroductionAn interesting study on learning...
#0.8
From an article by Marina Krakovsky, Stanford University on professor Carol Dweck’s study.
Those that believe that talent, intellect, aptitude and luck are something that you are born with, or feel there is an inherited limit to personal capabilities are less likely to succeed. People who perform to please others, to look smart, to create an image are less likely to succeed.
Those that believe that talent, intellect, aptitude and luck are something that can be developed through effort and hard work, and view learning as a challenge that can be surmounted are much more likely to succeed. Those that learn from failures and criticism, and view failure as a challenge are much more likely to succeed.
