About the book
Angela Duckworth, a research psychologist, challenges the notion that innate talent is the main determinant of success. Her concept of 'grit'—the combination of long-term passion and perseverance in the face of difficulties—proves to be an even more crucial factor than IQ or natural aptitude.
Based on decades of research and inspiring stories of athletes, entrepreneurs and artists, the book offers a practical roadmap for cultivating this essential quality. A transformative read for anyone who wishes to understand the true foundations of excellence and personal fulfillment.
