expected Full of long explanations of psychological studies , could be better to just include a reference to those studies so we can search for them ourselves if we need to,and get to the main ideas briefly.
On thanpages orchapters, the author takes on a journey on what grit“ means, on how to grow it and apply it to your life.
The first part of the book explains what grit means, that talent can distract while effort counts twice, Mrs. Duckworth explains how to measure grit, also scientifically, that great deeds come out of consistent practices, exercises etc, which is often experienced as talent“ see great achievements in sports, which makes it easier to process for the spectator, Being a parent of two young kids, I especially liked the third part on how growing grit inside your house / family / surroundings, how to train your kids, not being the enabler for them,
but supporting them in their decision and coaxing them on following a regular hobby like playing an instrument, doing certain sports, especially setting rules on keeping this activity for a certain amount of time.
What I really liked about the book is the connection to other literature I read in the past years, e, g. the the often cited growth mindset read the book by Dr, Carol Dweck, you can also check my review, consistent habit building, leaving your comfort zone, constant life long learning etc, This approach might resp. will collide with certain mindsets like the famous work life balance“ which lies, as perceived by a lot of persons on the life side instead of being a dynamic balance, but I am a great fan of the thoughts presented.
I really liked the very detailed notes section, the writing style, the small personal anecdotes of Mrs, Duckworth, I can totally recommend this book, Excellent livre. Je navais aucune connaissance préalable sur le sujet et jen ai beaucoup appris, Anglais simple et compréhensible, très bonne explication du sujet, de la base scientifique et de son application au quotidien, Il est cité par de nombreuses autres sources, A lire!
