Growth Mindset: Motivational Cats

This growth mindset meme has part of one of my favorite quotes in it: "You’re not bad at it, you just haven’t learned it yet." I love the idea of yet. It reminds me that things take time to learn, but you'll get it eventually. It's a great reminder for when situations get tough and you feel like it's not worth the effort. It's also just great to start any process with this mindset because it removes the idea that you have to do something right the first time around.


I love this one because it gives a new meaning for the word "genius." Too often people worry about not being smart enough but truly the most important part of intelligence is the desire to know more. Genius shouldn't just be about being able to memorize information. It should instead be thought of as a trait that entails exploration and curiosity.
