Angela Lee Duckworth: The key to success? Grit


After I saw this video, I learn a lot from it. The speaker told us what the key to success.
"One characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success.  It wasn't social intelligence.
It wasn't good looks, physical health, and it wasn't IQ. It was grit. Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals.  Grit is having stamina.  Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality.  Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint." she said

Although my English ability isn't as good as my CALL classmates, I can try to work hard to catch up them. I will take grit to be successful. I love English and so dost it.
