Question

Have you ever failed at something so miserably that the thought of attempting to do it

again was the last thing you wanted to do?

2. If your answer is yes, then you are "not a robot." Unlike robots, we human beings have

feelings, emotions, and dreams. We are all meant to grow and stretch despite our

circumstances and our limitations. Flourishing and trying to make our dreams come true is

great when life is going our way. But what happens when it's not? What happens when you

fail despite all of your hard work? Do you stay down and accept the defeat or do you get up

again and again until you are satisfied? If you have a tendency to persevere and keep going

then you have what experts call, grit.

3. Falling down or failing is one of the most agonizing, embarrassing, and scariest human

experiences. But it is also one of the most educational, empowering, and essential parts of

living a successful and fulfilling life. Did you know that perseverance (grit) is one of the

seven qualities that have been described as the keys to personal success and betterment in

society? The other six are: curiosity, gratitude, optimism, self-control, social intelligence, and

zest. Thomas Edison is a model for grit for trying 1,000 plus times to invent the light bulb. If

you are reading this with the lights on in your room, you know well he succeeded. When

asked why he kept going despite his hundreds of failures, he merely stated that what he had

been not failures. They were hundreds of ways not to create a light bulb. This statement not

only revealed his grit but also his optimism for looking at the bright side.

4. Grit can be learned to help you become more successful. One of the techniques that helps

is mindfulness. Mindfulness is a practice that helps the individual stay in the moment by

bringing awareness of his or her experience without judgement. This practice has been used

to quiet the noise of their fears and doubts. Through this simple practice of mindfulness,

individuals have the ability to stop the self-sabotaging downward spiral of hopelessness,

despair, and frustration.
