True Grit

Grit: Relentless dogged perseverance

in Tennyson's words: seeking, striving, finding and never yielding!!! never yielding.

Grit is an attitude...an attitude to never give up, never, never ...

seeking excellence and not perfection... in fact perfection can be barrier to success.

to succeed and be truly gritty give up the fear of failure...just persevere...

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strived valiantly; who errs, who comes again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly"
