Rigor is creating an environment in which each student is expected to learn at high levels,
each student is supported so he or she can learn at high levels,
and each student demonstrates learning at high levels (Blackburn, 2008).

Unlocking Mazes and Puzzles for Students

Do your students feel like this?

Mine did.  There are a variety of ways we can help students, but one is to start with a belief that we can navigate the mazes and puzzles of life. I really like this quote from Brian Tracy:

Life is like a combination lock; your job is to find the right numbers, in the right order, so you can have anything you want.

Here's my version:
Learning is like a combination lock; with your effort and the help of your teacher, you can find the right numbers, in the right order, so you can learn anything!
