Top Comments : [TED] The power of believing that you can improve | Carol Dweck

vi**********:

and even after 5 years, students get bigger red "f" than a nice "not yet, but next time"

Ja**:

I wish all teachers knew this, it could make a huge impact.

Br******:

Glad I grew up playing sports. Coaches really instill the importance of practice and following plays, teaching you that the only way to win is to get with the program especially when the team is relying on you.

Fr********:

Carol Dweck is an excellent teacher/lecturer! She enunciates, speaks at the right speed for better understanding by listeners, and she knows which words to emphasize. Other lecturers should take notice.

An**********:

Her and her book have changed my life or more accurately gave me one. I can never repay you, but thank you. I will try to share this with people around me :-) <3

No*************:

can be applied in Bachelor's degree too.. Not too late..
I don't want to waste my life.,,anymore

Th*****:

Try this: Run this video at speed 1.5 ..you might feel it is too fast. Now run at speed 2 for a while and then come back 1.5 . What you see ? Growth Mindset :)

Gr******:

Couldn't agree more, brilliant philosophy.

Don't focus on your goals, focus on executing the behaviour/s that allow for their achievement.

Fu*******************:

What a great talk! So important for raising kids and helping them to develop self-efficacy! Thank you for your great research!

Mi*********:

That growth mindset is really what sets people apart from others.

Re*********:

Read her book quite a while ago. Hadn't heard from her or her concepts since then and now I realize how much I am reminded and the good advice I've missed to consider in day-to-day challenges.

Her book is one to read and reread like The Bible.

TI********:

Why the government doesn't apply the rule to write "Not yet" instead of "fail"??? I really believe in the lecturer!!

Ch*********:

No 10 year old has ever said "You know I was hoping this would be informative"

Pe**************:

I was listening at twice the speed, so I heard "gay scientists" instead of "game scientists." I immediately thought, WTF that has to do with anything?

Ar********:

She might be a great scientist, but not such a great public speaker.

Jo******:

I believe that I can do anything and I will achieve it with God's power

R:

Holy.. thats something im trying recently, seeing struggle like something necessary and actually "doing it" because when you fail a lot of times it looks like an impossible thing to do, so the next one you wont even try, you will pass directly to "is impossible for me" while you havent even touch it once

ca**********:

This is a wonderful talk and a great way to encourage and education not only children but adults to

Ma*******:

That awkward moment when x1.25 speed seems normal xD

Ju***********:

If you're here, and you enjoyed this video, I encourage you to pick up her book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success...especially if you're into personal development, lifelong learning, etc. It's fantastic!

WL**:

Profound message from this clip. The "growth mindset" is critical for children's learning.. and as adults, we should also embrace "growth mindset" because learning is lifelong. The day you stop learning is the day you die.

Pa***:

This video changed my life. I stumbled on it when I was in the beginning of medical school and wanted to outdo some of what I did in my undergrad. I was a bit unhappy with how my undergrad went since my parents always told me that I tend to have a desire to learn new things and can do great things if I put my mind to it. What usually bogged me down in the past was when I did worse than what I was aiming for in (pretty much failing to hit my target). And you know you think: there must be something wrong with me, I'll never get that A, etc. I continued this attitude in the beginning of my medical studies and then I came across this video. I must say, as an individual who simply loves to learn new things, I never felt so liberated in my life. When Dr. Dweck said that grades are a natural by product of mastering the material, I finally realized that I can focus on enjoying what I'm doing and have that propel me to learn more and I'll naturally perform better on those tests anyway! It took a lot of tweaking, lots of ups and downs, but with the right growth mindset and learning better strategies, you figure out what works for you! I'm a living testament who can say that up till when I encountered this video, I was an average or somewhat below average student in my studies and so far, I was able to climb to top 10 in my class and get those A's I wanted before. I haven't discovered yet how far I can go, but now I know that there's always room for you to grow, get better, and eventually do better. Remember, you're a yet waiting to happen :) Best wishes to everyone!

ha***:

as a non english speaker, i really appreciate this lady for talking slowly and elegantly! thank you madame!

IW*****************:

This helped me a lot. I have such a self defeatist attitude because I always shy away from anything that leaves me feeling out of balance and unable to understand what's going on. It's so debilitating. But it gives me hope to know I've been going about things wrong and that I just need to change the way I think about and approach things. I am not my past failures, and I can be better. So can you.

An******:

Thank you Dr. Carol Dweck for for sharing the power of "YET". I would like to learn more.

Sh********:

I just realized I've been raised to have a fixed mindset. o.o

St****:

Her book Mindset changed my life for the better forever.

St************:

I almost gave up ,thank you for renewing my will!!

ab**************:

couldn't they give her smaller mike

Bl******************:

Carol Dweck is such a wonderful, intelligent, and meaningful person. It is a tragedy that her ideas aren't givens more pronounced platforms in the public space.

Sh************:

This makes so much sense.  When I was a kid, I got tons of praise for having natural ability, but none for effort.  So I ended up being lazy, just counting on my giftedness to get me through life easily.  By the time I got to high school, I noticed that all of the "less intelligent" kids were outperforming me by a mile, and I got it into my head that maybe I wasn't as smart as I thought I was.  Now, looking back, I realize that I really could have been somebody if I'd just put in as much effort as everyone else.

Aa*********:

i had a nap while she said the word "catastrophic"

Ma****************:

Great! If she had spoken at a normal speaking pace some people would have missed something, perhaps English students. I believe she wanted everybody to understand her! 

ba************:

Play at 1.25 or 1.50 speed. Your welcome

6Y******:

好棒的教學方法。享受當下的過程。=D

Gi**************:

I was raised as a kid who always aim for A but turned out I was not intelligent enough to do that. So eventually, my parents gave up and I also gave up. I lazed off in elementary school and junior high and got average results which I don't care of. But in high school, I (barely) got into a very difficult school and in an environment with intellectual kids, I felt like a real loser. I'm not good at studying, at sport, or even making friends, and those around me are so great at everything, so I isolated myself from the class. It finally hit me at the end of first year, I was told I could be expelled because my grade was too bad. Then I thought, if I were going to be expelled, I'm going out of here with my head held high. And so I worked hard, harder than I ever did in my life. I was saved that year, from a fairly well done math test. After that, I realized that all my failures before were not because of my brain, it was because I didn't know what "try hard" was. In the next two year, I try to put in as much effort as possible, in making friends, in studying, in things I've never tried before. And today, I am at my third year of high school, with fairly high grade, I'm more sociable and more happy with my school days, and best of all I'm no longer afraid of failure or a lost, because I now know that's what makes me stronger :)

Sh*****:

I've been told by friends, family and teachers my whole life that i am clever, smart, talented. It always felt good being told this but at 21 years old, I have yet to taste the fruits of my so called intelligence and talent. I grew up lazy. Now I have to teach myself the self discipline that I always avoided due to my self belief of being clever was enough to carry me through my teenage years. In adulthood, you must put in the work to succeed.
So that's what I am doing. I have no rewards, no praise, no encouragement. Its just me forcing myself to put the effort in daily. Raw self discipline. Some days I succeed, some days I dont. I keep going cos my long term goals require me to work and study now to secure my future.

Ro*******:

"The ultimate life hack: There is one thing that can be easily learned in five minutes (literally the time you spend reading this answer) that can have a profound impact on your life, and the lives of your children or students. It’s called the “Growth Mindset” and it’s simple, powerful, and backed by a vast body of scientific research.

I have lectured at universities, I’ve hired and managed more than 20 people, and I have children of my own. And in my own work as a teacher, parent and and manager of employees, I see these two mindsets play out starkly every day!

In a series of experiments, Stanford researcher Carol Dweck divided students into two groups and gave them relatively easy math tests. After the students did well on the tests, half of the them were praised for being naturally clever or gifted, and half were praised for working hard. After those conversations, they were given harder math tests. The ones who were praised for working hard performed dramatically better on the more difficult exams.

Students who are praised for effort quickly adopt what Dweck calls a “growth mindset.” When they face more difficult problems they think “hard work got me this far, so I just need to work a bit harder and I will figure out these questions too.”

Students who are praised for being clever adopt a destructive internal narrative. They think “Perhaps I’m not that clever after all, since I can’t figure out these harder questions.” So they quickly give up. Or worse, they see the hard questions as a threat to their self-esteem, and develop the dangerous habit of avoiding any situation where they might be wrong. (e.g. Any situation where they might learn something new!)

So what can you do? If you’re a parent or teacher, praise effort rather than innate ability. And for yourself – ascribe your own success to effort and tenacity rather than innate ability. Really believe that your successes are a result of your efforts rather than purely some innate gift.

It really is that simple!"
