What is Grit?

It's not talent. It's grit.

Having spent many years studying the psychology of success in sports and business, Angela Duckworth concluded that "talent" is not what makes humans more likely to succeed.

In fact it is a series of qualities she defines as "grit" that set the successful apart.

It's not about how smart you are, how fit you are, or how much talent you have — it's about how gritty you are.
