Inspirational Coach, Desiree Aragon Nielson Talks About The Growth Mindset Established By Using ‘Not Yet’

Inspiring Business Consultant and Spiritual Coach, Desiree Aragon Nielson emphasizes the potential for learning and growth throughout life through the use of two small yet powerful words.

Sacramento, California – April 2, 2018 – Desiree Aragon Nielson, Inspirational Business Consultant, Coach and co-author of the best-selling book, Ready, Set, Go!, recently posted a new article on her website entitled, “‘Not Yet’ Are Two Hope Filled Words That Generate A Learning Mindset,” in which Ms. Nielson shares insight gleaned from Psychologist Carol Dweck.

Desiree NielsonNielson writes, “In our culture, education is more focused on getting answers right on tests that we seem to have forgotten what learning really is.” She elaborates, “Learning is ongoing. There really is no endpoint to our ability to learn.” “This is brought to light,” Nielson says, “by Psychologist, Carol Dweck in which she discusses the power of a grading system that includes the two words,‘not yet’ which she explains leads to a learning or growth mindset.”

As Nielson points out, “Dweck did a Ted Talk on her research of the power of ‘yet.’ She discovered that when children were given a grade of ‘not yet’ those kids’ minds were opened to further studying and learning. When children were given letter grades, they become stuck in thinking they could not learn, that they were somehow incapable of ever learning.” She adds, “You might want to take a look at Dweck’s TedTalk.”

According to Nielson, “Dweck’s concept is based on the premise that we are all on a learning journey, and that just because you haven’t accomplished a task yet, does not mean that you cannot or should not try and certainly that you should not give up.” She continues adding, “ Your “yet” is coming, your “yet” is not yet here. It’s a type of hope that is instilled in us to not give up. It is particularly powerful when used with children.”

“This concept, while important to teach to children,” Nielson writes, “is just as relevant and impactful for adults who have lived lives of quiet desperation because of having learned as children that they ‘weren’t good’ at something and believed that story.” She continues adding, “Had they been told they weren’t good at something ‘yet’ these adults might be living very different lives. There is a lack of finality in the words ‘not yet.’ Fact is, life is a journey, not a destination.”
