[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a parent so feel free to ignore my advice. However, I think it's good that he's failing now at age 14, rather than age 25. Right now it doesn't really matter if he fails once or twice, and hopefully he'll soon realize that hard work doesn't beat talent if talent doesn't work hard.[/quote] This most recent failure he immediately said to me I'm going to be practicing after school with X friend who also didn't make it to get better together. So I'm super happy at his response - work harder, get better. He also could tell me the concrete ways in which he didn't do as well as others. [/quote] It sounds like you’ve instilled a growth mindset! Failure is not something to fear, it’s an opportunity. [/quote]
