Description

The Power of Yet" is inspired by thework of Dr. Carol Dweck, a Stanford University psychologist. She is a leading researcher in the field of motivation and has extensively studied what she calls the "growth mindset."Dweck's research distinguishes between two mindsets :


•  Fixed mindset : The belief that our abilities and intelligence are fixed traits and cannot be changed. People with this mindset may avoid challenges and give up easily to protect their self-image.


•  Growth mindset : The belief that our abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and effort. People with this mindset embrace challenges, learn from their mistakes, and see setbacks as opportunities to grow.The concept of "yet" is a cornerstone of Dweck's work on the growth mindset. It's a simple but powerful word that transforms a statement of limitation ("I can't do this") into one of potential and progress ("I can't do this yet"). She has shared this idea in various talks, including a popular TED Talk, and in her book, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success.The reflection is a simplified and accessible version of her core message, designed for practice. It aims to encourage people to adopt a growth mindset by highlighting the transformative power of a single word.
