Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth - Book Summary - Readtrepreneur (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book, but an unofficial summary.)

Is success all talent? What do the successful people have that allows them to achieve their goals? This book Grit teaches us that success is not all talent. To have the talent is an essential factor and it will give you the edge over others who don't, but more importantly, you need the grit to see things through.

(Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Readtrepreneur It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

"Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint." - Angela Duckworth

Author Angela Duckworth was a math teacher to seventh graders before she went on to study about Grit and she has discovered a valuable insight from her experience: that grit is a predictor of success. Find out how gritty you are, how you can become a grittier individual, and how you can influence other people to become more gritty and have a higher chance at success.

P.S. This book has something for everyone to learn from; regardless if you're a teacher, a parent, or an aspiring individual who seeks to better himself. You will learn to see things in a different light and understand how successful people came to be.
