Ever hit a wall and thought okay
I'm just not cut out for this like maybe i'm just not good at this happens all the time
It's so easy er just give up
You know let those set backs convvce us
We're not good at something right right
But what if like those road blocks that not dead ds on of the more like detours
Detours on the path to actually getting better
I like that
That's what we're diving into today
The power of yet
Wowhat power good yet
We've got this
Stanford allumi youtube video
Um tuure in curred duwech
Oh Yeah
I've seen this one to good one
She's the researcher behind the growth mindset
The growth mines and honestly this video is just packed with insights
Duwex work is really interesting
It like challenge is all those you're ther ther born with it
Or you're not beliefs about intelligence
Oh Yeah
For sure turns out how we believe
How we think about our ability has a huge impact huge
Yeah like how we learn
How we bounce back from setbacks
Even the choices we make in life
And it's not just like some feel good philosophy or anything
There's like actual neuroscience
Oh wow
That shows how our brains actually respond to miin things interesting
Different
Differently depending on our minddyeah
Wow
So crazy
Yeah get this just adding yet to our vocabulary yet and make a huge difference
It's fascinating how language can like rewire our thinking isn't
It totally i know right
Yeah Okay
So let's start with this story
The derect lls okay about this high school in chicago alright
They decided to like completely change their greeting system interest so instead of handing out failing grades
They started using not yet
Wow
Not yet
Instead of like an f
Instead of an f
But to change right that is a huge e change like talk about a paradigm shift
Because failing ing
Know know slams the door shut
But not yet
Well not yet
Throws open like aa window to possibility
It tells students they're on a journey
Still in progress right the room growth
It makes me think about like all the things i've just given up on because i didn't get them right away
But what if i had that not yet attitude that's a great question
And it kind of gets at the heart of um duex research okay
Grogrowth versus fixed mindset can you remind us
What those are again
Yeah
I know it's like corore to her work
But yeah it's good to revisit
Absolutely so a fixed mindset
It sees intelligence as like static stethetic
But you're either born smarter or you're not yeah
So when you fail
It feels like a judgment on your worth right you as a person
Yeah it's no surprise that people with this mindset
嗯
Ten end just avoid chchengengnext like like rissk looking bad
If you think you can't change
You know right right so different from a growth mindset
Where you believe
You know
是的是的
That your ababilican can be dedeveloed ed rerever and learning
Yeah
Direct
This is really interesting study with ten year old
Oh wow
Where she gave them like really tough problems
Problems designed to push their limits
And these problems were like
They were like um logic puzzles ok and specigial reaszing
So so something that you could figure out
You know whatever
But they weren't obvious right ts i say
I say yeah
And how did the kids react with the different mindseook
So the kids who had um like they've been identified as having fixed mindsets okay
They were totally thrown
Completely thrown
They just they felt defeated some of them wanted to cheat
Some of them even like compared that so the kids who were doing worse just to feel better
You know
So they were so focused on protecting their ego
Yes
That they weren't actually engaging with the challenge
They weren't learning
They were just protecting themselves
Wow
But the kids with growth mindsets
Yeah
They lid up really yeah
They saw the tough problems as the chance to learn something new
That's awesome to like stretch their brains
They even said things like i love a challenge
Wow
That's a big difference
Big difference and that's not just anecdotal is it like there's actual brain sign
Oh Yeah
There's actual research to back this up
So there's a research ining moser
Moser okay
And he used eegeg to look at brain activity
When people made mistakes i'm interesting
And what did they find
Well Yes
The fixed mindset brains
Yeah
There wasn't n't lot of activity
Really yeah
Ah like their brains were shutting down
Trying to avoid like processing the error
So they wor're really learning from it
No no not really
But the growth mindset brains they were buzen buzzing
They were like actively engaging with the mistake
Trying to ggout what went wrong oow
But the brains were lighting up with possibility
But the possibility of yet
He's not incredible
It really highlights how important
It is yeah
To see mistakes not as failures but as opportunity to growth for growth yeah
And that brings us to the question like yeah
How do we foster this
This growth mindset
This growth mindset in ourselves in others
Especially in kids
Yes
Especially kids because they're so impressiable at that age
Oh
Absolutely
And one of the most impackful things
According to tech
He's to change the way we praise them
So instead of praising like intelligence
Intelligence or or talent
We should be praising their effort okay
Their strategies and their persistent okay
So instead of saying like wow
You're so smart
You got a pps s right
We should say something like i'm really impressed with how much effort
You put into studying for that test
Exactly you didn't give up
Even when the material got tough
That's perfect
Yeah
By focusing on the process yeah
Instead of just the outcome
The outcome you send the message that success isn't about being like inherently brilliant right
But about working hard learning from your mistakes
嗯
And never giving up
And
And re's is really powerful
Example from dux x work
Ah ah
A math game called brainpoints
Brain points okay
It's this math game so like how wit different
Different from other math games
What makes it special
Most math games you know they were rewds you for getting the right answer right away right
But brain points is different rewds you for your effort
Your strategy and your progress
Even if you don't get the answer right away
Even if you don't get a right
Ad exactly
So it's really encouraging kids to focus on the learning process
The learning process
I'm figuring things out
Yes
Not just getting the answer as as fast as possible
It's almost like it
Like it
It gave a fies the yet mindset
You know yeah
It rewards you for being on the journey
That's really cool
And it's fascinating because the kids who played brain points yeah
They showed more sustained learning and perseverance
Then the kids who just played standard math game
Then the kids who just wanted to get the answer right away
That's i'm and love that even just adding yet to your feedback
Can make a difference yeah
Yeah like saying you know you have a master this yet yeah instead of more sustained this yeah
People like language tweet
But could you make a huge difference to your mindset
It really reframes the situation from a fixed state to a journey
To a journey of growth
It's like giving ourselves permission to like not have it all figured out yet yeah
Which is something we could all benefit from at any stage of life
Any stage of life
And do i talked about yeah
How just learning about the concept of a growth mindset
Can have an impact yeah
One of her studues
They took a group of students
Okay
对个的这个
And they taught them about the brain's ability to change
So they were explaining how learning physically changes the brain
Yeah like how it forms new connections yeah
And we learn that's so cool
Like rewiring you know the aciriritory yeah expanding our potential with every new challenwith every new challenge
And you know know those students who learn that they showed a significant improvement in their grades just from learning about the growth mindset
That is so amazing
It really makes me think about how much of our six
Yes
Yeah is determined by what we believe about ourselves
Our beliefs
About ourselves in our ability
If we believe we can grow were more likely to put in the effort yeah
Embrace challenges in ultimately achieve our goal
Achieve our goals yeah
And this isn't just about individual achievement
Is it not no
This has like bigger implications
Social implications for yeah
Addressing social inequality yeah
Exactly well
This is what gets really interesting for me well
What do do i say about that well
好的好的好的
She argues that a lot of these achievement gaps
We see they can be narrowed by creating environments that foster a growth mindset
So if we can help kids
Especially kids from disadvantage backgrrooms yeah develop a growth mindset
They'll be more likely to succeed even with the obstacles
Even with all the obstacles
Exactly that's really cool
Shere's some really inspiring examples of teachers who have transformed their classrooms
Ah have underperforming asassrooms
They the more growth
Both mindset principles okay
I need to hear about this
What did these teachers do differently well
There's this one kindergarten teacher in harleland okay
And a lot of these kids started the year
Not even knowing how to hold a pencil properly wow
That's a tough starting point
It is wow
But by the end of the year
Her class was scoring the ninety fifty percent tele no way a national achievement tests
What was her secret
She shifted the whole classroom culture
Oh
Instead of seeing effort as like a sign of weakness
Yeah
They started to view it as the key to getting smarter
So they didn't see effort as a bad thing
Though they saw is like this is i'm going to get better right
This is how we grow
Yeah
And you know she reframed effort difficulty ty from something negative
It's something positive
Something essential for growth
Exactly
And there's another example
Um a fourth grade teacher okay in the south growth
对对对对对
These students were really far behind okay
But she instialled growth minddset in ooay
And by the end of the year
Yeah
They topped yyork state on the state math test
That is incredible
Is that these stories are so inspiring
It just shows you
Yeah
That with the right mindset anything is possible
And wex shares this really heartwarming story about a thirteen year old boy who read her book
Yeah
I remember this one
And he applied the growth mindset principles to his own life
I love these real world exams like what happened to here well
He wrote dewect wow
And he told her
His life had change wow
That's so cause grades had gone up just from changing his mindset
Yeah
His relationship with his parents even got better
His social life got set wow
All because he shifted his mindset
That's a powerful testament to the power of a growth mindset
And you know it shows that
It's ever too late to start believing in our ability to grow
Exactly
And that's what i find so exciting about dueks work
Yeah
It's not just about academic achievement
It's about like unlocking potential in all areas of life
In every area
It's really cool
It makes you wonder
Doesn't it
It really die
But if it's thirteen year kid can make such a transforformaimamaine ine
What could all do if we embrace grogrowth mindset
It's not just about getting better grades or acacing tests
It's about approaching life with curiosity
With resilience
With a belief that you can always learn and improve it makes me think about all the times i've held myself back
Because of like that fear of failure
Yeah
What if instead of like shrking back from those challenges you leaned in
Leaned in with grogrowth mindset
Yeyeah
Freeze us from those self imposed limitations
Okay
So let's say our listener is totally on board with this idea of a growth mindset
Okay
What are some steps they can take to start cultivating it in themselves
In themselves and the people around them well
We've already talked about praise right
Yeah
Focusing on effort strategies and persistence rather than just inherent talent
Rather than just saying o're so talented right right
And it's not just about kids
Either no this applies to everyone
Like everyone we interact whwhether your teacher
A parent
A coach
Just a friend
Just a friend
You know being mindful of how we raise and encourage others can make a huge difference so instead of telling your
Your friend
Yeah
Wow is such a natural athlete
You could say i'm really impressed with your dedication to training
Yeah
Your hard work is really paying off
And what about for ourselves yedo
We xed shind
Yeah
From a fixed mindset to a growth mindset in our own heads
What of the most ffective things you can do
Yeah
It's to become aware of yourself talk
Oh
Notice
How you react to set bands and challenges are you quick to label yourself as not good at something or do you see it is a chance to grow
So like if i'm struggling to learn a new language yeah
Instead of saying i'm just bad at language yeah
Or i'm not a language person
I could say i haven't master this yeah
Yeah
Exactly yeah
Ok
It's signals to your brain
That you're on a learning journey yeah
Ah not stuck
Leara
Gouryep
好的好的
Like that
And do i also talked about how just learning about the concept yeah of a growth mindset can have a positive impact absolutely in one of her studies
They taught students about the brains 's ability to change
To change and grow yeah
And how learning actually changes the structure of our brains
And how our brains are always capable of growing
It's not just an abstract concept yere's real tangible evidence yeah
That our brains can grow through
Throughout our life that's amazing
And those students es who learned about the growth mindset
They showed a significant improvement in their great wow is that amazing
It really is it's like you're giving yourself permission to believe in your potential
I to believe in your potential yeah
And it's not just about individual potential
Do i emphasizes that a growth mindset can be a powerful tool for social change
Okay
I'm really intrigued by this um
How does a growth mindset tie into like creating a more equable society well imagine applying this yet mindset so to the way we approach social issues yeah
Instead of labeling people as like behind or under achieving what if we saw their current situation as a not yet point on their journey
So instead of focusing on what they lack we focus on potential
We focus socitheir really really would change the whole narrative
It would shift our focus from judgment
From judgment and blame to possibility
Possipossiband empowerment
Yeah
So instead of saying things like this community is struggling with poverty
You could say this community hasn't yet achieved economic stability right
But here are the steps
They're taking in the resources on need to get there
It acknowledges that everybody's on a journey
Everyone's on a journey
Yeah
It's like we're taking dex research and appplanning it on a bigger scale
A graner scale
Instead of accepting in a quality is like just effect tive life
Where actively working towards a future
Where everyone has the opportunity to thrive
That's a future
I want to be a part of building me too
This conversation has really open my eyes
Yeah
The power wer grogrowwth mincess set
It's power just for individual success
It's the world but for creating a more just an eququable exexact
It's really about shifting our perspective
Shifting our perspective seeing challenges not as road blocks
But it's stepping stones
Jeffing stones to progress
The progress
Yes
Stepping stones to progress
Yeah
It really makes you think like if this thirteen year old kid could change so much just by changing his mindset imagine
What we could all do
If we all do that
Yeah
It's not just about getting better grades
No not or easing those tests
It's bigger than that it's like approaching life for that curiosity resilience a belief that you can learn and improve
Always
Always
Yeah thinking about all the times
I've held myself back me too
Because of fear of failure
Oh Yeah
What if instead of shinking back
Yeah
I lean in leaned into the challenge with grogrowth mindset
It's freeing isn't
It
It really
Yeah
It takes away those limitations so let's say are listener like totally on board with this growth mindset
Okay they're ready to go
What are some actual steps they can take to actually make it happen
To cultivate it in themselves in the people around them
Well we talked about praise right did yeah focusing on effort strategies not just talent
Yeah it's easy to just say or you're so talented
Yeah it's so easy to fall en to that trap
But we have to shift the focus to their effort
To their hard work process of learning
And it's not just for kids
Is it no
This is for everyone
Everyone when we interact with whether your teacher
A parent
A coach
A friend
Yeah
Yeah just being mindful of how you talk to people yeah
How we praise and encourage others
I can make a big difference
So instead of like telling your friend
While you're such natural aththleright right say i'm really impressed with how dedicated youare a training yeah
How what you're putting into this yeah
Paying off yeah
And what do up for ourselves
For ourselves odds a good one
How do we change that voice in our heads
Yeah fixed to growth one of the most effective things
According to dwec
Yeah is being aware of our self talk
Oh
That negative self talk
It can really hold us back
Yeah just notice how you react to thing a setbacks are you quick to label yourself
Like i'm just bad at this
I'm not a math person
I'm
I'm not a language person
So kkds ds of thing ah do you see those sebacks ks as chance to learn grogrow that's the key different yeah so for example like if i'm trying to learn a new lanink guh age yestead ad sasauh h it's bad at languages
You can say i have a mastered this language et yet
Yeah
It's a simple shift
But it sends a different message to your brain
It does you're on a journey
Not stuck
Not stuck
Exactly
It's powerful
It is and weack also mention where they learning about the concept of a growth mindset
Yeah can make a diffejust just knowning it yeah absolutely they did a study where just taught students about the brain's ability to change
So how it can actually grow and develop
How it forms new connections when we learn
So it's not just like a few good idea
No
It's real our brains are actually capable of growing and changing and adapting
Yeah throughout our life
It's
That's really cool
It's prety amazing
Significantly the ones who learned about grogrowth mindset
They got better grades
Their grades actually improve
Significantly
Wow
Just from knowing that their brains could growth
Not that amazing
Yeah
It's like you're giving yourself
Permission to believing yourself to believe in your own potential
Exactly
And it's not just about individual potential is it
No
It goes be on that
Duwex says
That a growth mindset can be a tool for social change
Social change okay
I'm really interested in this
How does a growth mindset tie to creating a more equable society well imagine
If we took this yet mindset okay
Appapply it to the way
We think about social issues okay
So instead of labelling people as behind or underachieving
Yeah
We see their situation as a not yet point in their journey
So instead of focusing on what they're lacking
We focus on their potential
One they're potential
Yeah
It would change everything
It would shift our perspective judgment from judgment blames a possibility and possibility and empowerment
So instead of seeing things like this community is struggling with poverty
You could say community hasn't yet achieved economic stability
Yeah
But they're working towards it
And here are the resources they need exactly it acknowledges that everyone is on a journey and we're all a different point
We're all a different poyeah
Yeah
Where like taking gex research and applying it on a much larger scale on a society level
Yeinstead of just accepting inequality as an inevitable fact
Yeah
Like that's just the way
It is we're actively working to create a future
Where everyone can thrive a world
Where everyone has the pportortity to reach their full potential
That's a world
I want to live in me too
This conversation has been really eye opening for me
Yeah
It's mayme realize how powerful a growth mindset
Really is it's more than just the individual success
It's about creating a more just an equable world
It's about changing the way we think about everything
It's about shifting our perspective seeing challenges as opportunities
Stepping stones
To create a better future
是的 对的
To create a better future
Pretty amazing stuff
Yeah
It really is feels like we've just scratch the surface
Oh Yeah
There's so much more to do ex work
I'm already like catching myself thinking not yet instead of never see it's already changing the way you think yeknow right
It's cool
It's exiting
Yeah
Ah really is it's like you said these aren't just theories
These are tools
Yeah
Tools we can use every day exactly so for our listener who is like totally hooked and taking noholook on growth minds up
Yeah
Hooked on the growth
So what are the big takeways from duexwork work okay
So big take away
Never one
And this is crucial okay
Everyone
Everyone has the potential to grow
Doesn't matter where you're starting from doesn't matter your background
Your past experiences
Yeah
You can develop a growth mindset
Like we're all works in progress
We are
We're all constantly evolving
I like that what else what else we keep in mind
Well challenges in setback oah thethey're not the enein yek
They're actually essential for wwth so instead of awaiting them embrace oothat see them is chances to learn what doesn't kill you
Makes you stronger
Exactly
But in this case
It makes you smarter
More resilient
More capable
And i love what we talked about earlier the power of language
Like how we talk to ourselves and others
It has a huge impact on our mindset
Praise
Effort
Praise strategies
Praise persistence
And don't forget yet that little word is magic
It's like a magic spell
That transforms a fixed statement into a possibility
It's like he said a reminder
That were all on a journey
Yeah
Lilistarning always growing exactly
And if we can create environments at home
At home
At school
At work
That support this growth mindset imagine the potential
Yes
It's huge liit less potential okay
So listener

We've got a little challenge for you a challenge
Think about an area in your life
Where you've been holding back
