12. I G O T M Y A G R A D E … . .
Dear Mr Zander,
I got my A because … I changed from
someone who was scared to make a
mistake in case she was noticed to
someone who knows that she has a
contribution to make to other people,
musically and personally … Thus all
diffidence and lack of belief in myself
are gone. So too is the belief that I only
exist as a reflection in other people’s
eyes and the resulting desire to please
everyone … I have changed from
desiring inconsequentiality and
anonymity to accepting the joy that
comes from knowing that my music
changes the world.

a study of 400 fifth-graders conducted by psychologist Carol
Dweck and a team at Columbia University in which the children
took three tests. The second test purposely was made difficult
enough that every child failed. What the scientists found was
that kids who had been praised for their effort recovered from
that failure by the third test to achieve scores 30% higher than
on their first test. Meanwhile, the students who were praised for
their intelligence had scores that were 20% lower. Ms. Dweck’s
conclusion: You should praise children for qualities they can
control, like effort. Those praised for their innate brainpower
might develop the sense that hard work isn’t necessary
