1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,273
We partnered with private

2
00:00:01,273 --> 00:00:02,557
companies asking which of

3
00:00:02,557 --> 00:00:03,637
these salespeople is going

4
00:00:03,637 --> 00:00:04,717
to keep their jobs

5
00:00:04,750 --> 00:00:05,684
And who's going to

6
00:00:05,684 --> 00:00:06,617
earn the most money

7
00:00:06,984 --> 00:00:08,761
In all those very

8
00:00:08,761 --> 00:00:10,650
different contexts one characteristic

9
00:00:10,650 --> 00:00:12,650
emerged as a significant

10
00:00:12,650 --> 00:00:15,003
predictor of success And

11
00:00:15,003 --> 00:00:16,417
it wasn't social intelligence

12
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:18,828
It wasn't good looks

13
00:00:18,828 --> 00:00:20,517
physical health and it

14
00:00:20,517 --> 00:00:22,683
wasn't IQ It was

15
00:00:22,683 --> 00:00:25,474
grit Grit is passion

16
00:00:25,474 --> 00:00:27,327
and perseverance for very

17
00:00:27,327 --> 00:00:29,601
long term goals Grit

18
00:00:29,601 --> 00:00:31,837
is having stamina Grit

19
00:00:31,837 --> 00:00:33,517
is sticking with your

20
00:00:33,517 --> 00:00:35,197
future day in day

21
00:00:35,197 --> 00:00:36,660
out not just for

22
00:00:36,660 --> 00:00:38,007
the week not just

23
00:00:38,007 --> 00:00:39,550
for the month but

24
00:00:39,550 --> 00:00:41,331
for years and working

25
00:00:41,331 --> 00:00:42,824
really hard to make

26
00:00:42,824 --> 00:00:44,317
that future a reality
