Detailed explanation-2: -Grit is passion and perseverance for long-term and meaningful goals. It is the ability to persist in something you feel passionate about and persevere when you face obstacles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Having perseverance and grit means that you have the ability to continue working on something even if it becomes challenging or takes a long time to complete. A gritty person has stamina and handles a challenge like it’s a marathon, not a sprint.

Detailed explanation-4: -Grit isn’t luck. Grit isn’t how intensely, for the moment, you want something. Instead, grit is about having what some researchers call an”ultimate concern”–a goal you care about so much that it organizes and gives meaning to almost everything you do. And grit is holding steadfast to that goal. Even when you fall down.

Detailed explanation-5: -You see grit is the passion and perseverance for the pursuit of long-term goals. It’s the ability to stick with working towards something for years, as you try to accomplish something that lights you up and gives you purpose. It’s living life like it’s a marathon, rather than a sprint.
