#6 The power of passion and perseverance


5 keywords I learn from the talk :
  • stratospheric (adj.) 平流層的;同溫層的:relating to the outer part of the air surrounding the Earth
  • grit (n.) 意志力:refers to the enthusiasm and perseverance of pursuing long-term goals; not just working hard for a week or a month, but for a few years of hard work until the goal is achieved
  • perseverance (n.) 不屈不撓:continued effort and determination
  • standardize (v.) 使標準化,使合乎標準:to make things of the same type all have the same basic features
  • intuition (n.) 直覺:(knowledge from) an ability to understand or know something immediately based on your feelings rather than facts
Introduce the talk :
The pyschologist Angela Lee Duckworth proposed that grit is a more important success thrait than IQ and talent. Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint and to buid grift, there's something called growth mindset, it's a belief that ability to learn is not fixed, that it can changed with your effort.
