Angela Duckworth adderesses students at the 2017 Aspen Challenge Philadelphia

Keynote speaker at the Aspen Challenge: Philadelphia Competition 2017
Angela Duckworth is a professor of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and a 2013 MacArthur fellow. She is also the founder and scientific director of the Character Lab, a nonprofit whose mission is to advance the science and practice of character development. Duckworth studies grit and self-control, two attributes that are distinct from IQ and yet powerfully predict success and well-being. Previously, she founded a summer school for low-income children that was profiled as a Harvard Kennedy School case study and, in 2012, celebrated its twentieth anniversary. She has also been a McKinsey management consultant and a math and science teacher. Duckworth completed her undergraduate degree in advanced studies neurobiology at Harvard, an MSc in neuroscience from Oxford University, and a PhD in psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. Her first book, Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, debuted May 3, 2016 as an immediate New York Times bestseller.

Have to do something a single day as W.smith does 1. what one thing do is to decide specific details outside of your reach yet . 2. Practicing alone over 70 percentages of your efforts with 100 concentration 3. Listening to others feedback such as teacher,classmates ,even thought negative reputations. If you tried to adjust that feedback.it makes you to get better. 4. Never giving up on a bad day, should stay Think about those that purpose ,growth mind set, good learners. Ask yourself what you want to be

I dont think Will Smith is the best example of success. sucess in media industry is influenced by luck and the diversity issue .
