Eric Jensen Quote

Need to cultivate persistent, purposeful, focused effort to be lifelong learners. On the one hand, a student can rely too heavily on talent and natural abilities, resulting in little effort because he or she is already good. On the other hand, some students refuse to try because they feel their situation is hopeless.
