“In Professor Dweck鈥檚 study, 128 fifth graders were given a puzzle to complete. After finishing, some children were praised for being smart, others for working hard. The children were then given the choice of a second task, one more difficult, but from which they 鈥渨ould learn a lot,鈥� or one similar to the first. Sixty-seven percent of the kids called 鈥渟mart鈥� chose the easy task; 92 percent of those praised for working hard chose the more difficult task.”
