Grit – Why Passion and Resilience Are the Secrets to Success

"Fascinating and persuasive." — Malcolm Gladwell

Grit: Why Passion and Resilience Are the Secrets to Success by Angela Duckworth is a #1 New York Times bestseller that challenges everything we think we know about talent and achievement.

Why do some people succeed and others don't? Angela Duckworth, a MacArthur “Genius” Fellow and professor of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, spent years studying the world’s top performers — from West Point cadets to National Spelling Bee champions to elite athletes — and discovered one defining trait they all shared: grit. Not talent. Not luck. Grit — the combination of passion and perseverance for long-term goals. This book will change how you think about success, effort, and what it truly takes to achieve greatness.
