We are excited to share that Mission Connection and our Executive Director, Ashley Peña, LCSW, were featured in a recent Verywell Mind article titled, How to Tap Into a Growth Mindset and Crush Your Goals. In this insightful piece, Ashley discusses the importance of adopting a growth mindset—a belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and hard work.
Ashley illustrates the concept with a simple example:
“A simple example of a fixed mindset versus a growth mindset is ‘I’m not good at yoga,’ versus ‘I’m not good at yoga yet.’”
This perspective emphasizes the power of “yet,” highlighting that skills can be honed over time with effort and perseverance.
At Mission Connection, we are dedicated to empowering individuals to embrace growth mindsets, enabling them to overcome challenges and achieve their personal and professional goals.
