Talent is overrated - learn what truly makes you succeed

Angela Duckworth’s seminal work on why passion and perseverance matter more than anything

Why do naturally talented people frequently fail to reach their potential while other far less gifted individuals go on to achieve amazing things? The secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a passionate persistence. In other words, 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. Leaping past cliches 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.
