Its not talent that counts, but a persons grit. Anything worthwhile requires sticking with it longer than you might have originally thought.
GRIT: Is a special combination of passion and perseverance for long term term goals, or in other words, Grit is sticking with things and not giving up on them.
4 Things are crucial for Grit:
Having a tremendously deep interest in what you do
Capacity to practice and get better at what you do
Having a sense of purpose - its important not just to you but to other people
Having hope - You cant be gritty without getting up again after getting knocked down
An individual with Grit has deep confidence that the worl isn't perfect and that they are not perfect, but they believe they can make things better.
Grit starts with passion, if you dont love what you do, then there is no point in perseverance!
