Youths have to move away from fixed mindsets. Adults have to encourage youths that their capacity to learn should not be finite.Don't praise kids they are smart - neither tell them they are dumb.  Adults should encourage youths to steer from fixed mindsets. 

EVERY YOUTH MATTERS With Dr. John Tan

88: Failure of Fixed Mindsets

Hello and Welcome to “Every Youth Matters”. I’m Dr John Tan. For the past 30 years, I’ve been helping youths realize their life potential. In recent years, though, I’ve helped parents, teachers, counsellors and youth workers engage their teenagers and youths. In this podcast I will share tips, tools and ways to reach what may be that difficult or challenging youth who just would not respond to your best intentions or actions. What can we do to reach and win their hearts? I believe that a youth’s potential is too precious a gift to waste. So join me in this journey, for every youth matters!
