i heard something interesting on cbc radio yesterday. apparently, one of the differences between being successful or not in different ventures or activities is the word 'yet'. i'm not good at math.... yet. i'm can't sew... yet. i haven't found a job... yet. this makes perfect sense! sometimes it takes time to learn or achieve things, and if we stop short of 'yet', then we're limiting ourselves or giving up. i don't like to be pigeon-holed by traits. they become self-fulfilling prophecies. and i think this it also true of our abilities.
