Grit: How to Hang on and Persevere

by Phillip Carson

Research in the areas of applied psychology, education and business leadership has found that “grit” is a fundamental aspect of peak performance and advancement in life, more important perhaps than intelligence. Simply put, grit is a major key to goal achievement because it’s what’s necessary in order to keep chugging along when obstacles appear to be insurmountable. It is an easy to follow primer for anyone interested in understanding the meaning of grit and the power of discipline and passion in relation to personal success. It is imagined as a guidebook, written for the individual who wants to improve their character, strength, resilience and personal growth, but is a bit unsure of the right starting point. This book delineates the different aspects of growth, resilience, instinct, and tenacity, all necessary to overcome stressors and challenges. It will show you how to change your outlook in order to realize your contributions to society and the universe. More importantly, it will show you how to develop and call upon your own grit mentality in order to hang on and persevere, no matter what.
