Duckworth presents compelling research demonstrating that sustained effort over time leads to mastery, introducing the Grit Scale to measure an individual's commitment to their goals. We discuss key themes such as effort outweighing talent, deliberate practice, and the importance of deep, enduring passion, along with how grit can be cultivated in individuals, education, and leadership.
