Grit is created by Angela Duckworth; it is a combination of passion and perseverance, it predicts one’s success in academics and even a society, community, family, etc. According to Duckworth, those who are grittier are more successful, by successful here, she means in the long run. Those who are gritty are always improving from their failures, they are hardworking, determined, and stick to their goals. On the other hand, those who are lack grit assume failure as a dead end and do not put much effort to achieve their goals.

This example of my lack of grit prevented me from taking on the challenge and hoping I would finish it and striving to finish
