Mindful Monday for April 6

Mindful Monday for April 6

Bobcats FIRST Monday April 6, 2026

The Mindful Monday for April 6 is a reminder to strive for progress, not perfection: Be proud of how far you've come, even if it's not where you want to be yet. Psychologist Carol Dweck writes about "the power of yet." Instead of having a defeatist attitude about what we see as deficiencies, we can have a growth mindset about our potential. Replace "I'm bad at math" with "I haven't mastered these skills yet." Rather than thinking "I don't like my job," try "I haven't found my dream career yet." The possibility to reach our goals is on the horizon when we keep an open mindset.
