Self Efficacy and Resiliency= Promotion in the Visual Arts

Knowing that self efficacy and resiliency both address a method of thinking that reflects a drive for hard work, the belief that a person can grow and learn from their mistakes and stay driven in the face of hardship, they are certainly closely related attributes. A student who embodies both of these traits will have the resiliency to learn from his or her difficulties and mistakes. He or she  will inevitably develop the belief they perseverance can happen in any difficult life situation.
