In this instant New York Timesbestseller, pioneering psychologist Angela Duckworth shows anyone striving to succeed the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent but a special blend of passion and persistence she calls 'grit'.

MacArthur Genius Award-winning psychologist Angela Duckworth shares fascinating new revelations about who succeeds in life and why. Based on her cutting-edge research, Duckworth shows how many people achieve remarkable things not just by relying on innate natural talent, but by practising what she calls grit. She then offers a Grit Formula to help anyone to become more gritty, focusing on six key factors: hope, effort, precision, passion, ritual and prioritisation.
She reveals:

• How grit can be learned, regardless of I. Q. or circumstances
• Why stubbornness is a key characteristic of gritty people
• When to be stubborn and when giving up is the grittiest thing you can do
• How gritty people found their passion, and you can find yours
• How grit is cultivated in the highest-performing sports teams, companies and schools

Leaping past clichés such as 'success is all about hard work', Grit offers a fresh and motivating way to climb to heights far beyond what natural talent would predict.
