Thanks Zen - I'll check it out. What we tell our kids about themselves is so important in how they ultimately will come to view themselves. I would love for them to think of themselves as being smart - but seeing themselves as both smart and hardworking is probably even better.
I am not sure where I fall on the spectrum of having them think there are things that they are naturally good at and things they are not naturally good at vs. things they have worked at and things they must just work harder, for longer, at.
