    GRIT 
    You Can Learn Anthing!
    video by KhanAcademy

    According to Angela Duckworth... What is grit?

    Grit is passion and perseverance for long-term goals.

    One way to think about grit is to consider what grit isn’t.

    Grit isn’t talent. Grit isn’t luck. Grit isn’t how intensely, for the moment, you want something.

    Don't Give Up = Growth Mindset!video by Sesame Street 

    Instead, grit is about having what some researchers call an”ultimate concern”–a goal you care about so much that it organizes and gives meaning to almost everything you do. And grit is holding steadfast to that goal. Even when you fall down. Even when you screw up. Even when progress toward that goal is halting or slow.

    Fixed vs Growth Mindset!video by PERTS

    		 Talent and luck matter to success. But talent and luck are no guarantee of grit. And in the very long run, I think grit may matter as least as much, if not more.
