The Learning Myth: Why I'll Never Tell My Son He's Smart | Khan Academy: "Researchers have known for some time that the brain is like a muscle; that the more you use it, the more it grows.

 What this means is that our intelligence is not fixed, and the best way that we can grow our intelligence is to embrace tasks where we might struggle and fail."
