Growth-mindset kids

"You have to apply yourself each day to becoming a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better." as quoted from Coach John Wooden, who led the UCLA basketball to the NCAA Championship 10 times.

"To create growth-mindset kids, we need to repeatedly communicate: "I expect effort; I do NOT expect achievement." quoted from Christine Carter, happiness expert.

Do things because you enjoy doing them, learn something and become a better person rather than doing things solely because you are going to win and be the best.
