I absolutely agree. It took me 20 years to learn that lesson. As a child I was told by teachers and parents that I was a very bright kid and things would just work out for me, because stuff like math and learning new vocab came easy to me. As if that was the only thing that mattered... Nobody bothered to teach me how to practice hard for the things that don't come easy. Eventually I've learned my lessons on my own, after failing many times, especially socially. And I'm doing fine now. Still I wonder where I would be now if I had a real mentor as a child that taught me what you just said.

Thanks for your personal take on this. It took me at least that long... Also thank you for your the support on PATREON !!!

In my childhood days, I learnt that you need to be smart as if that's all that matters. Thanks to that I developed a fixed mindset. Now I'm slowly learning to make a permanent switch to growth mindset. Grit is important but you can't build it in a day. I hope I have enough patience to change my life around. Thanks a lot for these videos 👍

The greatest glory of life is not to never have fallen down but to always get up every time I fall. The greater the challenge the greater the glory.

Is true what it say on the video. when we practice anything like math assignments or other things like sports. When I start doing my last math class witch is Statistics I was very struggle with all the assignments from another college I used to attended at L.A when I move to Victor Ville and I register Stas again and I told to my family that I may don't pass the class again. But they told me that I can do it if I put a lot of afford, when start the class I was doing so well in the class and I did good on some of the homework and I pass three exams from C to A and right now I have a B in the class and I told my family and they told me that I'm really smart cause I was putting a lot of afford in the class and now all my family are very proud of me that I'm doing so good on my Statistics class.

These videos are truly inspiring..but it will be very helpful if you consider making some videos on self transformation and improving concentration..

[@infinitymfg5397]

This was an awesome video.

[@rizkinadakonveksi8092]

Thanks a lot, it's helpful.

[@roctechproductions]

This can be applied to our spirituality also..

yes. i think so too

[@siddharthvadoliya9345]

Really inspiring.

[@parsavares5847]

i love your videos 👌👍

[@johnwellington269]

wonderful sharing. Grit is definitely very important. i also found the free resources on TheGritMindset which mention about the words we speak to our children is crucial. It will form an inner voice for our children and make critical influence to their life.

[@payaswinibansal5923]

so if we practise something everyday it will become our passion? and what about he the passions that we had?

[@JD-tn5lz]

gotta ask, did something become a passion because you found early success and little effort or sacrifice was required? ...

[@payaswinibansal5923]

@@JD-tn5lz I commented this when I was in college. Wow. And got a reply after 4 years. To be honest what I am doing in my life right now is not my passion and did require a lot of effort and sacrifice. I am still making an effort everyday to understand and learn and come out of my comfort zone. I thi k I don't know anymore what I am passionate about. What about you? Any thoughts?

[@lemsip207]

This has been proven wrong. The children who failed the marshmallow test came from poorer backgrounds and didn't do so well in later life because of their background not the inability to defer gratification. In their homes if they didn't take the marshmallow straight away they would never get it.

[@sprouts]

Is that right? We were under the assumption it was successfully replicated several times

[@wa77705]

I want to know what grit acronym is , G.R.I.T.

[@va6392]

This is great, but the question still lingers. How do certain kids get to learn grit passion and perseverance over others? Is having grit a type of gene? Is it inherited? Or is it through the environment - good parents, environment, school? Or is it both?

[@KeePhengVue]

A bit late, but I would say it’s a lot of these factor into it. You can learn about grit, but two students will have different perspective on it.

[@sidpastore4239]

I’m all about talking about marshmallow kids and growth mindset and grit but I was watching some videos from Adam Grant where you could apply all the grit in the world to a stupid reason with no effect. I thought anybody could learn anything if they work hard enough but is it really worth the opportunity cost?

[@nathanjonesmoore]

This is 100% spot on.

[@chantzukit681]

Amazing!!

[@bea5292]

hi evie

[@deadlineperez3764]

Yes

[@seriousguy2160]

There is also no such thing as "grit."Grit is conscientiousness, plain and simple. All Duckworth and her compatriots did was fail to notice that they had re-invented a very well documented phenomena, that already had a name. A physicists who "re-discovered" iron and named it melignite or something equivalent would be immediately revealed as ignorant or manipulative, and then taunted out of the field.

[@curuvari2247]

Does this title actually say "Rückgrat" or is automatic translation messing around again

[@cheesyman5670]

cool

[@overkillssb2355]

Hey sprouts I have been watching your videos for a while now it really us helpful.Anyway my exams are a week away but the thing is when I study I study the given topic well and most of the time do great in my school but one thing I hate is procrastination I procrastinate so much it affects my results in school and also the exams but it isn't all bad I Still got good grades but lower than my potential can you maybe make a video on procrastination or a way to stop procrastinating and start to study :)

[@nathansn8382]

Unfortunately the scientific literature does not agree with this video. GRIT is less important than the psychological trait of "conscientiousness" which itself is also less important than IQ as a predictor of job and life success. Perseverance is important, but it wont make up for an inability to learn to read.

[@sprouts]

Hi Enthusiastic Noob, thank you so much for adding insight into the topic! There are many agruments that are pro as well as those that are against (most) theories and it's great that we get to acknowledge the different approaches here.

I disagree, it's genetrics. i have had a longer term successful career 20+ years being self employed, yet applied for a 'job' at an airline and got hired. In training, while in class - got release because i wasn't 'book smart' due to my adhd. my 'false' pride wont have me re-apply in 6 months as the results in my mind will be the same as i gave it 100% and have no interest now being rejected a 2nd time. thanks though. they would rather keep young people at the airlines, then a 39 year old who will stay for the rest of their life.

[@jhl3653]

This used to be just simple common sense. How far our fat and lazy society has degenerated, that simple discipline is now considered a novel idea once repackaged as "grit"!

[@adilwonderful5161]

please sub arabic all your video and thank you

[@karen665]

that wasn't what the marshmallow test tested

[@sprouts]

what did it test?

[@twilightprince8190]

it tested patience. marshmellow did not test passion or, perseverance, just self control so 2 critical pieces of grit is missing
