Our potential is one thing. What we do with it is quite another.
Grit, Chapter 2
Enthusiasm is common. Endurance is rare.
To be gritty is to keep putting one foot in front of the other. To be gritty is to hold fast to an interesting and purposeful goal.
Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.
