    About this ebook

    Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance

    Grit is not action, but character. Grit is your most determined, patient, and hard-working self. It is completing tasks. It is unselfishly helping others.

    Duckworth provides personal stories of extremely gritty people, showing that they also have faced challenges and, despite wanting to, never quit. Our common thread is finding individual passion and achieving success through grit.

      Somewhat confusing and difficult to follow summary of the unabridged version of the book. Reads like a quickly contrived booklet designed to compliment the original tome, and make a little $$$.
