Compare the following phrases…

  • I can’t play the violin!
  • We can’t handle a customer that big!
  • Our product can’t meet that customer requirement!

…with these phrases:

  • I can’t play the violin … yet!
  • We can’t handle a customer that big … yet!
  • Our product can’t meet that customer requirement … yet!

Yet is such a small but powerful word, which can transform the way you think about what is possible.

It can transform something which seems impossible now into something which just needs practice to improve.

And it can help transform a fixed mindset into a growth mindset.

Every creative journey, and every innovation, starts out looking impossible at the beginning. And yet, those which succeeded did so anyway.

So, what can you not do … yet?
