Sobre este artículo
US: Scribner, 2018. Paperback. Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. In this instant New York Times bestseller, Angela Duckworth shows anyone st riving to succeed that the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a special blend of passion and persistence she calls "grit." "Inspirat ion for non-geniuses everywhere" (People). The daughter of a scientist who frequently noted her lack of "genius," Ange la Duckworth is now a celebrated researcher and professor. It was her early eye-opening stints in teaching, business consulting, and neuroscience that led to her hypothesis about what really drives success: not genius, but a unique combination of passion and long-term perseverance. In Grit, she takes us into the field to visit cadets struggling through the ir first days at West Point, teachers working in some of the toughest schoo ls, and young finalists in the National Spelling Bee. She also mines fascin ating insights from history and shows what can be gleaned from modern exper iments in peak performance. Finally, she shares what she's learned from int erviewing dozens of high achievers--from JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon to New Y orker cartoon editor Bob Mankoff to Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll. "Duckworth's ideas about the cultivation of tenacity have clearly changed some lives for the better" (The New York Times Book Review). Among Grit's most valuable insights: any effort you make ultimately counts twice toward your goal; grit can be learned, regardless of IQ or circumstances; when it comes to child-rearing, neither a warm embrace nor hig.
