Grit

Grit is a combination of passion and persistence. Having grit means pursuing your goal with vigor and focus over an extended period of time. Less gritty individuals are easily discouraged or frequently led off track by new interests.

Being gritty means:

Finishing what you begin

Staying committed to your goals

Working hard even after experiencing failure or when you feel like quitting

Sticking with a project or activity for more than a few weeks
