Is Self-Control Overrated?
The Art of Manliness
Reward the Struggle, Not Just the Success
Focusing on rewarding effort rather than outcomes fosters a healthier mindset toward achievement, especially in children. Effort is the exertion of mental and physical capacities to overcome resistance and meet goals. Recognizing and reinforcing the feeling of effort can create a positive association that encourages individuals to embrace challenges. This association leads to a greater tolerance and appreciation for effort itself, which can ultimately enhance motivation and persistence in various aspects of life. By promoting the value of hard work and trying, rather than solely rewarding results like high grades, individuals learn to appreciate the struggle involved in their endeavors, which can facilitate ongoing growth and resilience.
