So often we think that grit is about how we respond to extreme situations, but what about everyday circumstances?
Mental toughness is like a muscle. It needs to be worked to grow and develop.
✅ Choose to do the tenth rep when it would be easier to just do nine.
✅ Choose to create when it would be easier to consume.
✅ Choose to ask the extra question when it would be easier to accept.
Prove to yourself — in a thousand tiny ways — that you have enough guts to get in the ring and do battle with life.
Mentally tough people don’t have to be more courageous, more talented, or more intelligent — just more consistent.
Grit comes down to your habits, folks.
✅ It’s about doing the things you know you’re supposed to do on a more consistent basis.
✅ It’s about your dedication to daily practice and your ability to stick to a schedule.
“What is grit? Grit is refusing to give up. It’s persistence. It’s making your own luck.” ~ Peter Diamandis
“Grit is sticking with your new future day in, day out and not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years.” ~ Angela Lee Duckworth
