Just Thinking, Quick Tips Add comments

If believe your IQ is fixed, you probably won’t get any smarter. But if you believe you can learn new things you will. That’s the message of a study by Stanford psychology professor Carol Dweck and others. People who believe they’re getting smarter tend to study harder, persist in the face of setbacks, and create wider neural networks, all of which makes them, well, smarter.

Isn’t it amazing what the right attitude can do?
