In Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, psychologist Angela Duckworth breaks down one of the most important qualities behind achievement—and it’s not talent. Through years of research, Duckworth shows that grit—a blend of persistence and passion—is what separates high achievers from the rest.
She explores stories of successful athletes, students, business leaders, and military cadets, all of whom excelled not because they were naturally gifted, but because they worked hard, stayed focused, and didn’t quit when things got tough.

Why grit often outperforms talent in real-world success
