Building Mental Strength To Win In Life

People frequently wonder why life seems to have passed them by? Why can’t they reach their goals, why do their dreams still seem painfully out of reach? I’ve found in working with many people over the years that the answers to these questions are varied, but very often there is one common theme. The has been a lack of consistent focus and work to reach those goals that are most important.

It is not that the person is lazy, nor that they lack motivation. Far from it. What very frequently has happened is that the man, or woman, sitting across from me has not learned the supreme value of “grit.” That is, the tenacious drive to continue to work toward a goal despite the inevitable setbacks, heartaches and distractions that always arise.

This quality of tenacious persistence is what we mean when we refer to someone having grit. Research shows that the quality of grit is one of the primary factors distinguishing those that succeed at reaching their goals and those that do not. Here is the good news… grit is learned. Grit can be taught, and better yet it can be self taught.
