Praise effort

Praise effort and strategy, not intelligence. as Dweck's research has shown, children who are praised for "being smart" often belive that every enconter is a test of weather they really are. So to avoid looking dumb, they resist new challenges and choose the easiest path. By contrast, kids who understand that effort and ward work lead to mastery and growth are more willing to take on new, difficult tasks.
