TED Talks: Grit


  1. What is Grit? I think that Grit is a metaphor for the effort that you put into your daily life,and how far you are willing to go with it. Instead of just meeting the standard you would go above and beyond.
  2. The antithesis of Grit? The antithesis of Grit would be when you do not go the extra mile to meet your goal, you settle.
  3. What can I do to increase my "Grittiness"? I can do this by accepting failure, but not settling with it. That it is okay to make mistakes and I should learn from them.
