Specifically, individuals will develop hierarchical dominance, always retaining the truth and finding it difficult to appreciate other’s perspectives. Furthermore, orientating to outperform others contributes to high levels of stress. Along with parent’s expectations, achievement pressure inflicts a tendency to blame and compare oneself.

Moreover, challenge exposure can accelerate their resilience to deal with real life situation. Psychology today presents that mistake improve student’s learning in New York City School.
