Through more than three decades of systematic research, Stanford University researcher Carol Dweck has been figuring out answers to why some people achieve their potential while equally talented others don’t—why some become Muhammad Ali and others Mike Tyson. The key, she found, isn’t ability; it’s whether you look at ability as something inherent that needs to be demonstrated or as something that can be developed. Read the full article and consider how you can apply this thinking as a tutor/mentor, teacher, parent, etc.
