I took a grit test last night after watching a TED talk featuring researcher Angela Lee Duckworth. Click here to see her video, Grit: the power of passion and perseverance. If you like what you see, click here to find out where you rank on the grit scale.
This subject resonates with me because I do believe anyone can get grit if they're willing to pay the price. Grit can get you to your goals when everyone else thinks you don't have a chance in Hell. Grit can reward you with a life well lived. Grit can be your best friend when your compass is broken and nothing in your life is going according to plan.
Angela wasn't sure how best to teach grit to others. I have an idea. Be gritty. Start today. Let your loved ones learn grit by your example. Have a great day.
