Love this analogy
#UKEd #edusky
Students should expect some of the work they do will be hard. It will feel hard. That isn't necessarily negative; there can be satisfaction in that sort of hard work, but it feels worse when you're not used to it. An analogy to physical exercise is apt. When you're first trying to get in shape, it's hard to interpret the hard work of exercise as anything other than discomfort. But as you grow more used to it, it takes on a different cast. It's hard but it's a satisfying type of hard. The people who do well in school are not ones who won't need to work because they are smart. They are the ones who can capture that feeling of satisfaction in hard work, and they probably got that way by pushing past that initial feeling of "bleah, I want to quit."
