“Scientific studies have shown that there is a measurement, called Error Positivity (EP), that shows how well people learn from mistakes. Those that have a higher EP tend to learn more and better than those that do not. Since high EP correlates to positive attitude and a willingness to work but does not correlate to intelligence, there is a theory that this is why, over time, competent hard workers outperform their more intelligent but less hard-working competition.” — Anthony J.
