This week's TED interview is with psychologist Angela Duckworth. She talks about what it takes to be successful in whatever way you want to define it. The podcast also features Jacqueline Novogratz and Simon Sinek on why work isn't going back to normal.
What does it take to persevere and succeed, not just in our careers but in all aspects of our lives? For psychologist Angela Duckworth, the answer can be summed up in one concept: grit. She explains the ingredients in grit and the experiences that make one person persist where another gives up — and offers concrete steps to instill grit early in life and sustain it.
