For everyone, interest is often our best guide to success. Interest can open people's intelligence, enrich knowledge, broaden their horizons, and make people good at adapting to the environment and full of enthusiasm for life. Interest plays a great role in the formation and development of human personality.
Growth thinking mode
Professor of psychology at Stanford University in the United States put forward two ways of thinking: one is a fixed way of thinking and the other is a growing way of thinking.
She believes that people with growth thinking are willing to accept challenges and actively expand their abilities. And this is also the most needed ability for future development.
Children with growth thinking believe that intelligence is plastic and can be improved through education and hard work. They face all kinds of problems, difficulties and challenges with an optimistic and positive attitude. They don't give up easily, they can enjoy the process, they are more likely to ask for help, they are more determined, and they are more likely to succeed.
How to help children change from fixed thinking to growth thinking?
It is found that the growth mode of thinking can be educated and shaped, but it should be started as soon as possible. Parents can cultivate their children's growth-oriented thinking mode by praising their children's efforts and perseverance (not only IQ), but also tell some examples of hard work, love of learning and success, so that children can know that the brain is a powerful learning machine.
