The Power of Yet: One of the key tenets of a growth mindset is the concept of
"yet." Instead of viewing setbacks as permanent failures, individuals with a
growth mindset recognize that they may not have achieved their goals yet, but
with effort and perseverance, they can continue to progress and improve.
Learning from Setbacks: Setbacks and failures are inevitable in life, but
individuals with a growth mindset approach them as valuable learning
experiences. They analyze their mistakes, extract lessons from failure, and use
feedback to refine their approach and improve their performance.
