Article Recommendation: "Why Grit & Determination Exceed Talent and Intelligence Every Time”

I read this article a couple of weeks ago and it reinforced a really important message for me. Success is not predicated on academic qualifications and intellectual capability but rather on your ability to be absolutely persistent in taking action towards your goals.

In my view, those who are most successful in life are those who have a clear goal in mind and constantly move towards it, even when they’re not really sure what they’re doing. They step out of their comfort zone and into the unknown; not so far that they’re paralyzed with fear but far enough to feel the discomfort and still be able to function. If you’ve been putting anything off recently, I encourage you to read the article and double down on your own determination to take the step you know you need to take.
