Grit


     When you have the ambition, motivation, and perseverance to accomplish your long-term goals, you have begun to develop grit.  When obstacles or challenges present themselves and you retain your commitment and zeal, you definitely have grit.
     Some people are born with this personality trait; some may learn it from their parents.  Others may witness the advantages of this trait in other people and learn to develop it in themselves.
     First, you need to set long-term goals.  Both the young and the not-so-young will benefit by having a plan for their future.  Next, keep the goal a priority by managing your time and energy wisely, and don't allow yourself to become distracted or side-tracked.  When set-backs occur, refresh your determination and commitment.
     You can control a good deal of your future.  Don't just sit back and let it happen.  Put some grit into the process.
