Dundee manager Jim McIntyre insists no one at Dens Park believes they have turned the corner yet.
McIntyre's new-look team are unbeaten in three games and moved out of the Ladbrokes Premiership bottom two for the first time this season when they won 2-1 at Livingston last Saturday.
But, speaking ahead of Friday's visit of Hibernian, the former Ross County boss said: "There is nobody resting on their laurels in our dressing room. We know what's got us decent results is the hard work and endeavour, and then after that comes that wee bit of quality."

McIntyre added: "But we have still got to go and out-run teams, out-battle them, which gives you the platform to go on and play. And when we do that, we're an effective side."
McIntyre does want his side to harness their new-found confidence though.
"We are feeling confident," he said. "We want to try and make sure we continue doing what we've been doing and putting teams under pressure and creating opportunities.
"I feel we have been creating lots of them in the last few games and we are going to have to try and do that again.
"Players play freely when the confidence is flowing. At the moment we are playing with a freedom, but I would reiterate it's because of the graft we are putting in and we are going to need all of those qualities on Friday."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
