"The hard thing rule" Do a hard thing that requires deliberate daily practice.

Excellent chapter on purpose

Good read on the “interest” of things such as your career and passion.

good chapter on how grit grows over time with life experience and maturing stages.

Talent x effort = skill
Skill x effort = achievement

I liked the bit a the end of chapter about Scott being a “slow learner” and his early years of life and that being a roadblock for him to join and apply for organizations/schools. He persevered by playing the cello with the help of his grandfather that gave him lessons. This unlocked another gear to his learning and allowed him to achieve more with the true grit he had.
