In this essential book for anyone wanting to succeed, psychologist Angela Duckworth reveals that the key to great achievement is not just talent, but a strong determination called grit.
What makes some people successful while others struggle? Through her groundbreaking research on grit, Duckworth shows that talent alone isn’t enough for success. Instead, it’s important to discover our passions and stick to our goals.
Drawing from her own experiences as the daughter of a scientist who often doubted her intelligence, Duckworth shares her journey through teaching, business consulting, and studying the brain. This journey led her to believe that success comes from a mix of passion and long-lasting effort, not just intelligence. As a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, she started her own character lab to test this idea.
Duckworth brings readers along as she visits teachers in challenging schools, cadets facing their first days at West Point, and young competitors in the National Spelling Bee. She also explores interesting lessons from history and modern studies on high performance. In addition, she shares insights gained from conversations with many successful people, from Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan, to the cartoon editor of The New Yorker, and Pete Carroll, the coach of the Seattle Seahawks.
With a personal touch, deep insights, and the power to inspire, Grit explores how our mindset affects our ability to rise after failure, showing that determination and effort are what truly matter.
