eres/es capaz de grandes cosas
"to have a mind to do something" means to be very much inclined to do something, according to the New Oxord Dictionary of English.
Hence, in my opinion, you do not really need to mention "mente" in your Spanish rendition.

: I like this one because it preserves the implied double meaning of 1) wanting to do great things and 2) being capable of doing them. Also, it is short, sweet, and headline-ready.

Tienes una mente prodigiosa
Me aparto un poco del original, pero es una expresión muy común que a lo mejor te sirve para el titular....

: Me parece excelente, Davinia. Además creo que no hay que traducir lo de "things" por "cosas". IMO "cosas" así nomás se oye muy vago en español.
