Be sure to check out this interesting article about what it takes to raise 'em up smart....
Here's an excerpt:
People do differ in intelligence, talent and ability. And yet research is converging on the conclusion that great accomplishment, and even what we call genius, is typically the result of years of passion and dedication and not something that flows naturally from a gift. Mozart, Edison, Curie, Darwin and Cézanne were not simply born with talent; they cultivated it through tremendous and sustained effort. Similarly, hard work and discipline contribute much more to school achievement than IQ does.
I don't think it's really rocket science--just a friendly reminder that your hard work will pay off.
Something that's been meandering around in my head today as I study for a slew of tests these next few weeks is that pain is temporary but the reward is eternal. The sacrifice is short but the prize is forever.
I hope that encourages you as you work hard in whatever season you may find yourself right now.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all you heart as working for the Lord and not men."
-Colossians 3:23
