The Pygmalion Effect:
Fun fact It comes from a Greek myth where Pygmalion believed so strongly in his creation that it eventually came to life basically an ancient metaphor for belief shaping reality.
This week I’ve been driving deeper into different theories that I think if you have children you should give this a thought.
Children often become who we believe they are.
When parents consistently expect the worst from a child, the child starts to live down to those expectations. When parents expect growth, effort, and goodness, children are more likely to rise to it. This is extremely important for those who are trying to end negative generational cycles 💓
