I wanted to create an episode normalizing the anxiety most of us carry early in our therapy careers. I used to think that I wasn't supposed to feel anxious, so when the anxiety showed up I made every effort to eliminate it. I interpreted my anxiety as a sign that maybe I wasn't ready to be a therapist, or maybe that my anxiety disorder was returning. But now, looking back, some anxiety while we're practicing therapy with real therapy clients makes absolute sense. If we focus on normalizing the anxiety rather than fighting it, it might help the anxiety stay at a manageable level. Of course, this is just my perspective and opinion.

What are the most important attitudes and habits of successful investors? In this podcast, Paul examines this question through the lens of “hard work,” or what is often called “grit.” He references a special 6-minute TED talk by Angela Lee Duckworth, a psychology professor at the University of Pennsylvania. The video is about the importance of “grit” in your life. While the hard work and the passion of grit may make people more successful in their daily life, Paul makes the case that it may lead to worse outcomes as an investor. In fact, the grit for an investor is to remain still and let your investments take care of themselves. Since the grit is largely a matter of habits and attitude, Paul reads chapter 11 from Financial Fitness Forever. He discusses the importance of trust, resilience, perspective, patience and common sense, plus six productive habits that seem to favor investors over the long term. He also suggests you watch his the video or audio, “Habits and Attitudes of Successful Investors,” from the 2016 Vestory Retiremeet Conference. https://paulmerriman.com/habits-attitudes-successful-investors/

The Celtics PRIDE team recaps the past two games vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers to bring the team to 7-7 on the year after going 5-2 in the last 7 games. The Celtics PRIDE guys discuss the team's style of play and propensity for isolation scoring and thus a lack of ball movement. “For the love of Celtics Pride, I need some ball movement in my Celtics. I need my Celtics to play together as a unit and play like a team instead of this ‘my turn your turn basketball.” - Josh Motenko (@coachmotenko) Is this iso style of play contagious? Mike (@mikeminkoffnba) counters with the tale of the tape of the Celtics recent defensive teamwork - demonstrating why fans should be excited by the Celtics recent play on that end of the floor. Then the pod clarifies the language that had been used on on recent episodes regarding Jayson Tatum's mental toughness. The conversation turns to talk of “grit,” “resiliency,” and “avoidance.” THe guys geek out on psychological definitions, referencing positive psychology definitions from Angela Lee Duckworth.   Remember to rate, review, and subscribe to the Celticsblog podcast feed (“Celtics PRIDE”) and follow us on Twitter @celticspridepod, a @celticsblog podcast.  Hosts: Adam Motenko, Josh Motenko @coachmotenko and Mike Minkoff, @mikeminkoffnba  Email: at celticspridepodcast@gmail.com You can find regular episodes of the CelitcsPod and Celtics PRIDE podcasts on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever else you listen to your podcasts.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode of the Leader Fluent Podcast, I'm talking about, “Five Signs of a Hard Worker.” Most people believe they work hard, but in this episode we'll discover that working hard is more than working long hours…it's how we work that makes the difference.  If you're not already a subscriber, I'd love for you to subscribe to Leader Fluent today on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, Android, Pandora, or your favorite podcasting platform. And as always, your RATINGS and REVIEWS are deeply appreciated.  SHOW NOTES: What are the signs of a truly hard worker? I believe there are five signs that separate hard workers from people who simply put in long hours.  1. Right Priorities  A hard worker is not focused solely on getting things done. Anybody can do that. Instead, a hard worker is somebody who gets the right things done. In other words, they understand their high-return priorities, and then they allocate the bulk of their time and energy to those priorities.  So, how do you establish the right priorities? Start by practicing the 80/20 Rule. The 80/20 Rule says that 80% of your outcomes are the result of 20% of your activity. Simply put, if you have ten priorities, the top two priorities will produce 80% of your results. You can identify the right priorities by asking yourself, “Which priorities will give me the highest return on my investment of time?”  2. Personal Initiative  Personal initiatives show up when we practice the three P's. First, be PROMPT. Arrive on time to work, to meetings, and to appointments. If you're continually late, then you're probably overscheduling, oversleeping, or underestimating how much time a task will take.  Second, own PROBLEMS. Hard workers don't point fingers, blame others, or say, “That's not my job.” Instead, when problems arise, hard workers take initiative to resolve them quickly. Third, be PROACTIVE. One of the hallmarks of a hard worker is that they don't have to be told what to do. Instead, they're self-motivated. They take initiative without waiting on someone else to light a fire under them.  3. Quality Work  Years ago, Truett Cathy (the founder of Chick-Fil-A), told his vice presidents and marketing team, “Gentlemen, I am sick and tired of hearing you talk about us getting bigger. What we need to be talking about is getting better. If we get better, our customers will demand that we get bigger.”  Truett's words that day shifted the entire conversation, and by 2000, Chick-Fil-A hit a billion dollars in sales. If you're going to get better and do quality work, it will require a growth mindset, regular evaluation, excellent execution.  4. Efficient Delivery  We've all heard the phrase, “Work smarter, not harder.” That's what efficient delivery is all about. It's choosing to wisely steward time, talent, and treasure to deliver outcomes in the most efficient way possible.  One of the best ways to provide efficient delivery is create good systems. Think of the word SYSTEM as an acronym that stands for: Saves You Stress, Time, Energy, and Money. That's what an efficient system does.  5. Unwavering Persistence  Author and psychologist, Angela Lee Duckworth, has done extensive research on the subject of grit. This is what she observed about grit…she said: “Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.” Hard workers have the ability to stick with something even when that something is hard. They have the ability to persevere and persist. They have grit and they are resilient. So, if they have to put in more hours, they'll put in more hours. If they have to do extra research to figure something out, they'll do the extra research. They don't quit.

Bu podcast bölümü bir önceki yayının devamı niteliğinde. Psikologlar genellikle yetenekler ve yetenekleri açmaya yarayan şeyler olmak üzere ikiye ayırdılar konuyu ve yetenekler konusuna daha çok odaklandılar. Günümüzde Angela Lee Duckworth gibi bazı psikologlar ve nörobilimciler yetenekleri aktive eden şeylere daha çok özen göstermeye ve konuyu araştırmaya başladılar. Yetenekler geliştirilebilir, fakat tüm bu yetenekleri aktive edecek şeyleri yeni öğrenmeye başlıyoruz daha doğru bunlara yeni odaklanmaya başladık.Support the show

The struggle is real, and for some reason it feels like it is getting harder and harder. However, while Joe was listening to two Ted Talks from Assia Grazioli and Dr Angela Lee Duckworth, he came across the discussion of grit, and what it means to tough it out, regardless of your own natural ability. In the episode we will discuss our ideas on 'Grit', another anecdote about Taylor Swift, and how Joe has more in common with Margot Robbie than he first thought.

GRITとは 近年、米国では、IQや所得や外見などに関係なく、学校や実社会で成功している人々には1つの共通する特徴がある、という学説が注目を集めています。 その特徴とは、GRITが高いということ。GRITというのは幾つかの言葉の頭文字を合わせた単語です。 G – Guts（度胸）：困難なことに立ち向かう R – Resilience（復元力）：失敗するたびに改善して再チャレンジ I – Initiative（自発性）：自分で行動を起こす T – Tenacity（執念）：成功するまでやめない この４つの特徴を持つものが何事においても成功しやすいという研究結果があります。今回のエピソードではAngela Lee Duckworthによる、このGRITの研究発表の一部を抜粋して、いちいち日本語に訳さずに英語のまま理解するというトレーニングを行っていきたいと思います。 英語を日本語に訳さず理解するには 英語をネイティブスピードで理解するためには、その語順のまま理解しなくてはなりません。そしていちいち日本語に訳していてはリアルタイムで理解することは出来ません。 英語を日本語を介さずに聴いて理解するコツは次の通りです。 ・意味の区切り（フレーズ）を把握する ・フレーズ内のストレスを置く単語を中心に意味を取る ・フレーズごとに意味を積み上げて理解する 完全な日本語に訳さないこと 今回は練習なので、各フレーズごとに区切って、それぞれ日本語で大体のイメージを掴むためのテキトーな翻訳をつけます。しかし重要なのは日本語のニュアンスに固着しないようにしましょう。 日本語にしっかり訳せば訳すほどどんどん本来のニュアンスから遠ざかってしまうので注意が必要です。だいたいこんな感じかな？っていうようなイメージ程度に留めておきましょう。 Script Angela Lee Duckworth Grit: The power of passion and perseverance I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging settings, and in every study my question was, who is successful here and why? My research team and I went to West Point Military Academy. We tried to predict which cadets would stay in military training and which would drop out. We went to the National Spelling Bee and tried to predict which children would advance farthest in competition. We studied rookie teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, asking which teachers are still going to be here in teaching by the end of the school year, and of those, who will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students? We partnered with private companies, asking, which of these salespeople is going to keep their jobs? And who's going to earn the most money? In all those very different contexts, one characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success. And it wasn't social intelligence. It wasn't good looks, physical health, and it wasn't IQ. It was grit. Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.The post やり抜く力GRITのスピーチを英語のまま理解するトレーニング【英語声Eps.015】 first appeared on ドクターＤイングリッシュ. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/drdenglish/message

La grinta è qualcosa che si può allenare, come la passione e la motivazione, alzando il livello nel corso del tempo. Anzi, la grinta è qualcosa di più: è uno dei fattori predittivi del successo. Lo sostiene Angela Lee Duckworth, che dopo aver lasciato un buon lavoro come consulente, iniziò a lavorare come insegnante di matematica delle scuole medie in una scuola pubblica di New York. Subito si rese conto che il Q.I. non era l'unica cosa che separava gli studenti di successo da quelli che facevano fatica. Qui ci spiega la sua teoria della "grinta" per predire il successo. Da questo Ted è nato "Grinta - Il potere della passione e della perseveranza", il libro edito da Giunti che consiglio a tutti di leggere https://www.ted.com/talks/angela_lee_duckworth_grit_the_power_of_passion_and_perseverance?language=it

American academic, psychologist, and popular science author Angela Lee Duckworth talks about the principle of grit and why it is an important component to success. She is a Christopher H. Browne Distinguished Professor of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania where she studies grit and self-control. Angela takes us into the science behind these characters as she also imparts her non-profit called Character Lab. Learn how she discovered this principle as she shares its opposite and how DNA plays a part. She talks about the roles models that exemplify those characters plus developing grit among children, exploring how failure is not a bad thing while sharing the differences among generations when it comes to society's pressures.

Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Lee Duckworth on TED Talks Three Steps to Develop Grit

We are all imperfect, this is the human condition. Pursuing a career in resuscitation means that some of our failures can lead to significant consequences, for our patients and ourselves. In medicine, we rarely talk about our short-comings, but this silence leads to isolation and shame. This likely contributes to our significant rates of burnout, anxiety, depression and suicide. We need to change the conversation and start talking about this issue; we need to break the silence. We need to train in mindfulness, in self-compassion and in empathy. These skills may be just as important as learning the new evidence or guidelines for clinical care. Do you have a case that haunts you? So do the rest of us. Let’s start talking about it, and learning how to fail better.

Fortitude---do you have it? It’s also known as grit. Why do some people possess this quality and for others it seems so far removed? This is the topic of discussion on today’s show. Let’s find out more!   Antonia Novello, the 14th Surgeon General of the US, said it this way: “I believe that fortitude is key. More than anything, be consistent. Go at it. Go at it. GO AT IT. When you succeed, don’t forget the responsibility of making someone else succeed with you.” She says it well, don’t you think? Let’s explore this topic and what it means for women who mentor and those who need mentoring. It’s safe to say that we all could use a good boost of fortitude in our lives. Join us!    Show Highlights:   What is fortitude?

Today on Single-Tasking Aloha Friday, we talk about the one key to success - Grit. We share our thoughts about a TED Talk by Angela Lee Duckworth who shares her experience and research in finding what is the main characteristic for success.  We also share a story from a member of Team Kū who wanted to share an inspiring story about success.  

“Nobody is born with grit and no one is born with discipline.” Tweet This Grit is one of the greatest predictors of success and one of the defining virtues of successful people… yet, what is grit exactly and how can you develop it? According to Angela Lee Duckworth’s TED talk, grit is a combination of persistence and a willingness to change and adapt to improve. It is actively choosing to pursue a goal, refusing to quit and being willing to accept failures— understanding that "success" is a processs. “People with a grit mindset are committed to outcomes and are willing to disregard facts if and when necessary.” Tweet This By persisting and keeping your eye on the prize, you can develop habits to guide you in achieving your goals. This week, Martin offers a few thought and behavior habits to transform your mindset and get help you get “gritty” (13:10): Start with a vision Believe it's possible Be patient Work hard and have courage Reframe your mistakes into learning experiences Craft creative alternatives Persist Mental toughness Reflect and Repeat The most important ingredient of this plan may be to continually repeat the process. Grit, in essence is the resolve to go through the process as many times as it takes to achieve your dreams. In order to implement this strategy into your life, use this template, a worksheet, or the Habit Factor app and develop the determination required to accomplish your goals.

Andrew Lock personifies the meaning of 'grit'. Melbourne Writers' FestivalAndrew Lock is the most accomplished high-altitude mountaineer in Australian history. He is the only Australian, the first person in the Commonwealth, and just the 18th man in the world to climb all 14 of the world’s 8000-metre mountains, including Everest – twice. Here, sports scientist David Bishop talks with Lock about “grit”, the psychological and physical stamina required for 24-hour days of climbing, and how he digs deep enough to achieve such incredible goals. Andrew Lock appeared at the Melbourne Writers’ Festival for Great Journeys: Mountains on Sunday August 24 at 1pm. Read more coverage of the Melbourne Writers’ Festival. Listen to other podcast episodes here. Full transcript David Bishop (DB): My name is David Bishop from ISEAL at Victoria University and welcome to this The Conversation podcast. I am speaking with Andrew Lock, the most accomplished high altitude mountaineer in Australian history, who has recently written a memoir about his experience, Summit 8000, and will be appearing at the Melbourne Writers’ Festival later this month. Andrew, welcome. Let me start by asking, which was the greatest challenge, climbing all of the world’s 8000-metre mountains or writing Summit 8000? Andrew Lock (AL): [Laughs] It’s a fair question. I think at the time they both seemed the harder of the two. This is my first book and it took a couple of years and a few false starts. It was certainly a challenge, although a very enjoyable challenge and just as enjoyable as climbing the mountains themselves. DB: Great, because everyone I speak to says it’s one of the most difficult things that they’ve ever done in writing a book. AL: Yeah, I’m not a particularly introspective person, and what I found is that the book forced me to be that. I had kept very comprehensive diaries through all my expeditions. I had really detailed notes to refresh my memory but the perennial question of course is: “Why do you do it?” and “What did you feel?” and I needed to answer that question as best I could in a book. For that I had to dig quite deep and also, I’m actually a very private person so revealing a lot about myself was quite an emotional challenge. But my publisher and my agent kept cracking the whip and I think I managed to do that for them. DB: I’ve just finished reading another book, its called The Rise of Superman by Steven Kotler and it talks about how extreme athletes have redefined the limits of the possible. It seems to me that you are superman and your achievements must have seemed impossible not that long ago. How do you think you’ve been able to redefine the limits of possible? AL: Look, I definitely would not consider myself to be a superman, I am very much an average person from an average background. But I do think that it’s the very lucky people in life who discover their innate ability and love doing that. For me that was mountaineering and because I already had an affinity for the outdoors, when I discovered mountaineering, I took to it like a duck to water and absolutely loved it. For me the adventures in the outdoors have always been about taking on challenges where the outcome is uncertain. Because if it’s guaranteed then for me there’s no point in doing it. In order to then achieve those challenges and overcome the obstacles both internal and physical, that forced me every time to draw deeply upon my own motivation and physical stamina. The 8000 metre mountains – every single one of them is an enormous challenge every time. I went on one of these expeditions and I had to dig deeper and deeper each time and when I finished I achieved one particular objective, then I set my sights on a more difficult one so I had to dig deeper each time and I think all of us have that capability it’s just a matter of identifying the process of what’s forcing us to draw upon it. DB: This author, Steven Kotler, discusses how athletes have been able to achieve the impossible by tapping into “flow”. Which is an optimal, almost effortless, psychological state that allows us to be our best. Is this something that you get often when you are climbing or when you are falling? AL: Well actually, that’s very interesting that he said that because I would agree wholeheartedly. I probably don’t feel like I’m flying when I’m falling but the state that I’m trying to achieve when I’m climbing is a physical and mental state where I am pushing really hard, but not to the extent that I’m going to burn out in a short amount of time. Because climbing on these mountains can be 10 hours a day for weeks and weeks and weeks, and a summit a day is invariably at least an 18-hour or 24-hour day of climbing. You’ve got to get into that zone where you keep going despite the pain and the misery and waning motivation. Just find that zone where you just keep on going, and of course as you see the mountains dropping away below you and the distance of the entire planet opens up before you, that’s a great motivator to keep on going. And when I achieve that zone, and it isn’t on every mountain because weather conditions and difficulties can stop it. But when I do achieve that zone I find that I can just go and go and go and I think it’s a bit like long distance running – you just click into that zone. DB: I guess why I mentioned falling is because he describes it as when everything is happening very quickly around you but there’s also this – it’s kind of like the world slows down and you can see all of the options – yeah I need to grab here and I need to grab here, I need to open my legs I need to do this and that and I was just wondering whether you also get to that physiological state when there is maybe a more dangerous instance during your climbing? AL: Well, I am very focused, I certainly find I am extremely focused when I climb and in fact I liken it to almost being meditative because you are so focused and it’s a prolonged state of meditation because you are focused for weeks and weeks. And yes, one becomes hyper-vigilant for all the dangers and the threats that are around you. But you are also very focused on the immediacy of what you are doing so as you say, looking for the right hand hold or the right placement of your ice tool? Or crampon points or whatever and that is a very tunnel-visioned focus, which does last for days and days and weeks throughout the expedition. DB: It’s obvious that it takes great mental strength to do what you’re doing. Is there any specific training that you do in this regard or is just something that you think you have naturally? AL: I do have a natural physiology that allows me to cope with high altitude but of course I have to train. I don’t train psychologically other than the fact that I love having epics so whenever I go for an outdoor adventure it’s always one that tests me as much as I can. But in terms of physical training for the mountains, high altitude, particularly legs and lungs – it’s all about stamina and as I get older I have to train more and more, running and mountain biking and building that stamina. Because that explosive power that we have when we are young isn’t what you need at high altitude it’s just long days for ten or so weeks. DB: And with that training, is that self-directed at the moment or do you consult with a sports scientist for example? AL: No, I’ve never gone down the sports science track, I’m completely self-directed. I’ve joined gyms in the past and not enjoyed them so I do it under my own guidance. But I’m quite a, perhaps not an introvert, but I’m very comfortable with my own space, so I’m happy to train hard by myself and in fact I think I enjoy it more when I’m training by myself. But I like to have adventures with climbing partners. I don’t climb solo all the time but I don’t struggle for motivation to get out into it on my own. DB: And what about, I guess in the climbing world, you know right at the beginning, we were talking about the limits of possible and I guess as we get closer and closer to those limits, is climbing becoming more professional, with other climbers using sports psychologists or nutritionists or sports scientists etc.? AL: It may well be, I haven’t come across that, but it’s certainly becoming more commercialised and more available to less-experienced people through the use of guides and supported Sherpas. It may well be extreme athlete climbers who do seek that sort of professional scientific support, but I’m not actually aware of it. DB: I was surprised that in your book you described yourself as not a supreme athlete, but even though you might not see it, I see a lot of parallels between you and other great athletes. For instance, there’s a controversial theory that you need 10,000 hours or about ten years to become an elite athlete and this seems to match pretty well with your training for your first 8,000 metre ascent and I was wondering if you could maybe just explain just a little bit of your nine years of preparation to climb K2. AL: Yeah, that’s a very good point. When my dream to start mountaineering was born, I had seen a slide show about climbing Mount Everest and I was so inspired by that vision that I decided I’d climb with myself. But you couldn’t be guided in those days, and I’m not the sort of person who would want to be so it really became a matter of project management. So whilst the end goal for me was climbing Mount Everest, I had to break that down into achievable chunks, the first of which was to learn how to rock climb, which I did in Australia and I climbed fanatically in Australia for a year before travelling to New Zealand and transferring those rock skills and rope skills to the alpine environment and I climbed for successive years in New Zealand building my alpine skills then climbing around the world building my altitude skills. And then, finally, taking on 8,000 metres. But in fact my first two 8,000 expeditions, which were to Mount Everest, were unsuccessful and partly because I was drawn into the rescues and assisting other people on the summit pushes but also I think there was probably some poor decisions made which I needed to learn from. So I decided to step back from Everest and then to go and climb a few other 8,000 metre mountains and build some more experience before I came back to Everest, and as you say, the first successful summit was actually K2 about nine years after I first started climbing. And ironically, that is generally considered to be the hardest mountain in the world but I guess I developed sufficient skills to get me up there although it was a desperate, very difficult ascent and a desperate descent. DB: It’s interesting, and I guess this ability to take small persistent steps towards a long-term goal has been described as “grit” and there’s a researcher in America, Angela Lee Duckworth, who thinks it’s one of the most important determinants of elite performance. How important do you think this grit has been in enabling you to achieve your incredible feats to date? AL: It’s been absolutely vital. As I mentioned, the descent from K2 was desperate and in fact two of my climbing partners were killed in that fall. Another climber from another team also died. And whilst I didn’t actually identify it at the time, I think I was affected by those deaths and my motivation waned a little bit for just for a couple of years, and I still kept climbing but I then didn’t succeed on the mountains I went to. And I made a conscious decision that I would either start succeeding or take up a different activity and with that conscious decision that I would simply not give up when I was tired, sick, exhausted, scared, or whatever, I would force myself through those stages and only allow myself to turn around when it was, you know, simply too difficult for me or the risk was no longer acceptable. That developed in me a new psychological approach of simply – grit is a great word for it – that I would keep going no matter what until either of those two things stopped me, the risk was too great or it was beyond my ability. And, with that newfound psychology, if you like, I started to succeed very regularly in the mountains. That didn’t make the mountain climbing any easier, I still had plenty of epics and a few close survival experiences, but I found myself time and again in situations where I was really very, very tired and just wanted to get down, and get back to warmth after being on the mountain for weeks or in blizzards or trapped to very difficult climbing conditions. But I just would not let myself give up and I think grit is probably the right word. DB: How do you think you have been able to push yourself to the very limit, but also quite accurately assess the risks, so how do you think you’ve been able to do that maybe a little bit better than some of the other climbers? AL: To be honest I was lucky in the first instance to be able to survive the accidents, of course of deaths of those three climbers, but I learnt from it and I very quickly became a good risk manager. Now, I continued to be lucky, there were incidents that occurred where others were killed and I could have been and I was just purely lucky, but I certainly chose to take a very risk-management focus to all of my climbs so it’s always about calculated risk. And there were plenty of times when I deemed it too dangerous to go on and that I needed to turn around or just on a particular day the conditions were too cold and I needed to turn around, but just come back the following day just to fight off frost bite on that particular day, and so that drew the process of climbing those mountains out for a number of years. One particular mountain took me five attempts because on several of those attempts the conditions were too dangerous and it was my own risk assessment that caused me to turn around and go back down and come back another year. It was always a great disappointment because it delayed my objectives and cost a lot of money and affected all of the other aspects of my life, but that was very, very important to me because at the end of the day they are just lumps of rock and ice. DB: So that comes back to the “grit” I guess and the key to keep pushing on with that long-term goal in mind. AL: Yes that’s right. The long-term goal of climbing all the peaks evolved from when I eventually summited Mount Everest in 2000, that was my seventh successful 8,000 metre summit and as I mentioned before, I like challenges where the outcome is uncertain, and the end of one challenge is always the starting point for the next. So having climbed Mount Everest, I licked four of the next big challenges and at the time only half a dozen of the world’s elite climbers had climbed all 14 of the 8,000 metre peaks so that seemed an appropriate challenge. I didn’t really think that I would be able to achieve it because all of those other climbers were in a completely different dimension as far as mountaineering elitism goes. But therefore it made it a worthwhile challenge and a project to focus on and to push towards no matter how many years it took. DB: And the way you described it, I guess climbing often seems like a solitary pursuit, but I was interested to read that you like climbing in teams so I’m just wondering if you can tell me a little bit about the team sport aspect of climbing a mountain? AL: Oh look I think adversity shared is – makes the achievement – far more enjoyable. I don’t like climbing in big teams, I don’t tend to enjoy the dynamics of big teams, but small teams of like-minded individuals – two or three – to me that’s an ideal size where you can work together. The leadership in those sort of circumstances is generally shared and if you’re climbing with people of similar experience and philosophy as to the approach to the climb then it can be a very enjoyable experience and I found that relationship with two or three other climbers over the years, where we almost didn’t need to speak when it came to a particular challenge, a cliff that we had to climb or a crevasse we had to cross or whatever, we just knew what we had to do and we did it to the satisfaction of the other members of the group. But you know, it is psychologically very supportive to have team members to share the fears and the adversity with when times are really tough. And so of course we share the elation of success at the end of those expeditions. I have climbed solo on some of them and that’s a completely different challenge. That’s more of a psychological challenge and whilst there’s a great sense of satisfaction, at the end of it you don’t have anyone to share it with, it is not as much fun. DB: One of the hot topics of sport is talent identification. If we were to try and find the next great Australian climber, what sort of characteristics do you think we should look for? AL: Hm, gosh that’s a good question. I’d be looking for people who are under the radar, are out climbing interesting, technically challenging peaks in ranges of little expeditions and exploration and who are doing it off their own bat without sponsorship because they tend to be the ones who have that grit to take on the really big challenges without the need for kudos or a camera in their face. There are Australian climbers out there doing great things in remote and barely-known mountain ranges so Australia already has great climbers out there doing things. I just happened to get a bit of publicity because of the particular peaks I was climbing, but those high-achieving Australian climbers are already in action. DB: Well thanks for your time today Andrew, good luck with the book and also your appearance at the Melbourne Writers’ Festival later in the month. AL: Yeah, I’m looking forward to it. Thanks for that.

Grit can predict the retention rate of teachers, the most successful sales person and who and who will not divorce. The more grit people have the less likely they are to divorce. Dr. Noelle Nelson explains how, why and what this means for couples.

Picking up on Angela Lee Duckworth's work on "grit", Jaylene Johnson invites us into a fresh engagement with Jeremiah 29:1, 4-7 and Luke 18:1-8

Michael Covel goes straight for the jugular of organized education on today's podcast. Organized education is broken and the typical university experience is a fraud. Tenured professors make a ton of money, and students are stuck with hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt. The whole situation is vicious, and a student's best hope for a steady job after school is to serve lattes. Millions of people think that if they go and sit through classes at a university for four years, listen to professors who have never made an entrepreneurial dime in their life, that they'll be in a better position to make money. Covel discusses an essay found on oftwominds.com (http://www.oftwominds.com/blogmay13/genX5-13.html) about one specific generation of college graduates. People don't want to talk about this, but the moment the US stock market takes a prolonged dip, that's when the dam will break. Are there alternatives? Yes. With access to the internet, we're in a better place than ever before to educate ourselves. Covel further illustrates his view with excerpts: The first is from entrepreneur David Gilmour, who started Fiji water, extolling the virtues of travel. Next, Covel plays a clip of a TED talk from Ken Robinson, who talks about the connection between education and curiosity--which is the true engine of learning--and the difference between education and learning. Covel notes that it's not about following the rules; it's not about doing what you're told. Automation is eliminating so many blue and white-collar jobs so quickly, there's no hanging on anymore. So where does that leave the college student? The final excerpt comes from Angela Lee Duckworth, who talks about what she thinks the real key to success is: grit. Passion and perseverance for long-term goals; stamina. Sticking with your future, day in, day out. Not just for the week or for the month, but for the rest of your life. Duckworth says that those with grit look at life like a marathon and not a sprint. Covel notes that the idea of grit works perfectly with trend following: it's a marathon. There are ups and downs, but over the long haul trend following grit delivers a healthy mind as well as a healthy wallet. Free trend following DVD? Go to trendfollowing.com/win.

경영 컨설팅으로 크게 성공한 안젤라 리 덕월쓰(Angela Lee Duckworth)는, 컨설팅 일을 그만두고 뉴욕시에서 중학생들에게 수학을 가르치기 시작했습니다. 아이들을 가르치면서, 공부를 잘하는 아이들과 못하는 아이들을 구별짓는 것은 아이큐가 아니라는 것을 깨달았습니다. 성공의 열쇠는 바로 "근성"이라는 것, 여기 그녀의 설명을 들어보세요.

Leaving a high-flying job in consulting, Angela Lee Duckworth took a job teaching math to seventh graders in a New York public school. She quickly realized that IQ wasn't the only thing separating the successful students from those who struggled. Here, she explains her theory of "grit" as a predictor of success.

Al dejar un trabajo de prestigio en consultoría, Angela Lee Duckworth tomó un trabajo como profesora de matemáticas de séptimo grado en una escuela pública de Nueva York. Rápidamente se dio cuenta de que el coeficiente intelectual no era lo único que separaba a los estudiantes exitosos de los que se esforzaban. Aquí, ella explica su teoría de la "determinación" como un predictor de éxito.

Nachdem Angela Lee Duckworth einen prestigeträchtigen Job in der Beratungsbranche aufgegeben hatte, unterrichtete sie Siebtklässler an öffentlichen New Yorker Schulen in Mathe. Schnell bemerkte sie, dass IQ nicht das einzige war, was die erfolgreichen Schüler von denen mit Schwierigkeiten unterschied. Hier erklärt sie ihre Theorie über "Durchhaltevermögen" als Vorbote von Erfolg.

Abandonnant un poste élevé dans le conseil, Angela Lee Duckworth est allée enseigner les maths à des élèves de cinquième dans une école publique de New York. Elle s'est vite rendue compte que le Q.I. n'était pas la seule chose qui sépare les élèves qui réussissent de ceux qui ont des difficultés. Ici, elle explique sa théorie de la ténacité comme indicateur de succès.

Deixando um cargo de alto nível na área de consultoria, Angela Lee Duckworth tornou-se professora de matemática de alunos do sétimo ano, em escolas públicas da cidade de Nova Iorque. Ela imediatamente percebeu que o Q.I. não era a única coisa que separava alunos bem sucedidos de alunos com dificuldades. Aqui, ela explica sua teoria da "determinação" como indicador de sucesso.

コンサル業界の高評価な仕事を辞めて、アンジェラ・リー・ダックワースは、ニューヨークの公立中学校1年生に数学を教え始めました。彼女がすぐに気付いたのは、IQだけが学業での成否を決めるわけではないということ。ここで、彼女は、成功のカギとなる「やり抜き力」理論について語ります。
