Grit! What is and how can you get more of it? OR better yet, help your children have more of it? This reminded me of something Chris Rock said in his conversation with Jerry Seinfeld about his daughters basketball playing. He told the story of how his daughter didnt get off the bench in a recent game. His wife was angry that their daughter didnt get to play. Chris said to Jerry that maybe if his daughter wanted to get play time, she should practice more and get better. That is how he became a successful comedian. He told bad jokes until he got good enough to get people laughing. Id say that sounds like grit to me. ted/talks/angela_lee_duckworth_the_key_to_success_grit.html
