In some cultures, childrens are often told they can achieve anything if they try hard enough. What are the advantages and disadvantages of giving children this message?

In many nations,

children

are regularly told that they can achieve success if they work hard enough.

This

essay will elaborate on both the advantages and disadvantages of

this

idea, leading to a logical conclusion.   Teaching

children

that they can succeed through hard work offers two main advantages.

Firstly

, the

children

who embrace

this

belief become more happy in life.

This

is because as they experience the genuine pleasure of achieving something they truly desire ,their enjoyment of life increases.

For example

, in China, most of the young ones are raised by

this

thought as research shows that they have the happiest child rate. Another advantage of

this

is that they become more ambitious which leads to better career opportunities and better quality education.

According to

a recent poll that has been done at the University of Harvard, 80% of the students believe that they can achieve whatever they want as long as they try harder.

On the other hand

, the main drawback is they get more exhausted. Most of the

children

who have that opinion tend to get their desire and

this

process makes them drained.

Furthermore

, if they don't make it, they become more depressive and less hopeful which affects their future in a terrible way.

For instance

,

children

who failed many times in IELTS, the international English language testing system, tend to believe that they won't be able to get the score they want.

Secondly

, they become greedy as they want to achieve more.

As a consequence

, they might become less emotional which would affect their relationships.

This

essay argued that teaching

children

they can achieve anything by trying harder has both benefits and drawbacks. Even though it might be beneficial for them, disadvantages can affect their life too.
