NDP Weekly Mentorship Series Episode 9: Talent vs Effort and the Importance of Grit

Listen Later

In this week's episode I summarize what I have learned from Angela Duckworth's book Grit. I recently finished this book and it has become one of my recent favourites and so I am excited to share what I have learned from it. 


Grit - explores what it takes to become successful in any line of work. Is it talent? Is it hard work?


Angela Duckworth concludes the following: 


talent x effort = skill
skill x effort = achievement 


therefore, talent counts once and effort counts twice.


She Concludes that grit is the biggest indicator for success and that grit comes from: 
Develop a fascination
1.    Aim for daily improvements
2.    Compete with who you were yesterday
3.    Greater Purpose – find purpose in what you do.
4.    Adopt a growth mindset
