In this terms wananga class we are learning about having a growth mindset and how it is better for your learning. Having a growth mindset means that you are willing to expand or develop your basic skills, you do this by working hard and training. It's also is about trying out new things that you have never done before, for example speaking infront of the class can be hard for a lot of people but once you conquer that fear you will improve your skills with speaking aloud. The power of yet is to change peoples mindset from "I don't think I can do this" and change it to "I dont think I can do this yet" this makes your mindset change from a negative and unhealthy mindset to a Positive and healthy mindset.
I like the example of public speaking because a lot of people are nervous about it. You are right, the more you practise the easier it gets.
