Develop a Growth Mindset for Success

Failure is an opportunity to learn.  Do not allow one or two fails get you down.  Learn how to have a growth mindset.  Too often, students get frustrated when subjects become more challenging.  They turn off and give up too easily. School will be more fulfilling, and you will be more motivated to succeed when you develop "grit" or a "growth mindset".
