Developing Grit
If you’ve been following my blog you’ll know I’ve been on a grit kick. I first got tuned into grit after listening to the Freakonomics Radio podcast about grit and reading Angela Duckworth’s book, Grit, the Power of Passion and Perseverance. From this podcast I discovered how gritty people become great in anything from spelling bees to athletics. What Duckworth discovered was, years of hard work and practice are more of a factor than natural talent.
