Awesome article. Anyone that's interested should also check out Dweck's book "Mindset: The New Psychology of Success". I haven't read it yet, but it's on my list, and I know quite a few people who say it changed their life (a dubious claim, I know, but give it a try. I trust these people).

Good luck with Geometry, Calc and Physics, by the way. I'm taking Calc & Physics right now, and they're both pretty difficult, but also really cool once you "get" them.
