About Lucent

When I started a new role at a fast-paced tech company, I found myself overwhelmed by the steep learning curve and high expectations. Each day brought new challenges that tested my confidence and resolve.

During this difficult time, I stumbled upon a quote by Albert Einstein that changed my perspective: "In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity." This simple yet profound statement helped me reframe my challenges as chances for growth.

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us."

Another quote that deeply resonated with me was from Carol Dweck: "The passion for stretching yourself and sticking to it, even when it's not going well, is the hallmark of the growth mindset." This helped me embrace the struggles rather than avoid them.

Gradually, I not only overcame those initial challenges but excelled in my role. The power of these quotes to transform my mindset and approach inspired me to create Lucent — a platform to help others find the right words at the right time to illuminate their path forward.
