Liberal arts grads are the tortoises of the workplace: They start slow, but eventually win the race.
The takeaway: Don’t just ask, “Am I good at this?” Ask: “Do I care enough to keep going?” “Am I willing to get better?” “Can I stay hopeful when it gets hard?” That’s grit. And that’s what leads to mastery.
And here’s the good news: Grit isn’t fixed. It’s a skill. It can be strengthened. And we can help others grow it too—through challenge, support, and meaning.
Talent matters. No doubt about that. But it’s not the only thing. And it’s often not even the main thing. Angela Duckworth’s research shows there’s a stronger predictor of success: Grit.
OWN YOUR DAY... It all comes down to what YOU do daily. Today matters. #NMW #YOUvsYOU #StepUp #KeepDigging ✊🏿✊🏻✊🏽✊🏼✊🏾
