Jan 24, 2012 - @REYZRBLEYD "dumb" is kind of a demeaning word, but would you agree that some people aren't as intelligent as others?

Jan 25, 2012 - @cobes11 "The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible" -Arthur Clarke. You must live a very sad life to just accept your limits like that. I think everyone is smart and everyone is special. It's important to never lose hope and just accept mediocrity. If he wants good grades and works hard enough, he'll get good grades. END OF STORY.

Jan 25, 2012 - @MikeyIV First, that quote is just plain stupid. You cannot go beyond the possible, just an idiot trying to be philosophical. Second, I am very happy. I have always seen myself as having the same innate abilities as everyone else, So it is a superior mind and spirit that will bring me to the top of humanity. Objectivity without the BS doctrines that our current society has put into us is frowned upon. I am proud to speak it.

Jan 25, 2012 - @cobes11 Arthur Clarke is one of the most famous writers of all time lol he's not stupid. Isaac Newton had difficulty in school and was told he would never amount to anything much by his teachers. Albert Einstein was told just to accept his job at the post office. NEVER tell a person he is "not that special" or "dumb." Just because you don't feel very unique or smart doesn't mean you should bring people down to your level.

Feb 5, 2012 - If life might be simple, then there might be a simple explanation for this. Consider that people who have been indoctrinated with a guilt complex for receiving money that they have not "really earned" will unconsciously get anxious when offered money, similar to if they were offered a really expensive car for $100. They would ask "wait, why is it so cheap? Is it stolen?" They don't want to be involved with a "bad deal" or an "unfair injustice." They freeze. Consider what is really being tested!

Feb 7, 2012 - This has tremendous impact on students. The moment I stopped focusing on grades and started thinking more about the learning process, I found myself learning and performing better. When you have a lot to lose, you go into tunnel vision, and that blocks out the creative thinking process you need to handle the world around us today.
ReignbowSmite Says:
Feb 7, 2012 - @Majoritis You're forgetting that motivative rewards work well for simple tasks, so no... China doesn't have it right. Incentive fails as soon as it passes rudimentary task work.In China, America and other post industrial capitalist countries have it backwards. For maximum efficiency, the simple factory laborer should have incentives. As soon as complex cognitive tasks are required rewards cause poor performances.China has sweat shops, the antithesis to everything Dan Pink says.
