Parents often tell kids, “If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything,” but a psychologist warns this might be more harmful than helpful. It sets unrealistic expectations and pushes kids toward external rewards like praise instead of building internal motivation. The real lesson? Focus on the process, embrace setbacks as learning opportunities, and foster resilience—not perfection. Encouraging kids to keep trying, even when they don’t win, builds self-discipline and optimism. It’s okay—and healthy—for kids to not be good at everything. Honesty about limits helps them set realistic goals, boosts confidence, and teaches them that failure is part of growth.
