In Brief

Goethe said, “Everything is hard before it is easy!” That quote seems to sum up the reality that the human brain is hardwired for struggle and when teachers allow students to fail and try again, mastery is achieved as a result of a combination of passion and resilience.

In an age where parents try to make the road to success smooth, students are losing out on an essential ingredient in their success sojourn – GRIT. The package takes educators on a journey into mindsets, the power of choice, the role of relationships, and the damage caused by anxiety when failure isn’t encouraged as a lifeskill.
