At Harvard University, they had a study on 130 students. They designed a study and asked students to run for up to five minutes on a treadmill with the maximum speed set. Running was over just in few minutes, but the study lasted forty years. The research team had longitudinal studies on the participants every two years to check their recent state. As a result, the study confirmed that their level of vocational achievement, social satisfaction, and psychological adjustment were proportional to the grit score.
Grit is a psychological term expressing patience and enthusiasm of pushing a little bit more when they reach the limit. It is found that the students, who received higher grit scores by not giving up even while feeling the limit of their physical strength due to intensive running at that time, have more successful lives than those who weren’t.
Experts say that people with higher grit scores are more likely to succeed than others. Angela Duckworth, a renowned psychologist in the United States, said that the reason you cannot succeed is not because you are not talented but because you have given up. And she advised that you can achieve a big accomplishment by increasing your grit score. It is said that if you practice the habit of completing even trivial things, your grit score will improve.
Until now, if you have raised the grit score of your faith well, you can get one more step rather than giving up when you feel the limit in the race of faith. If you are not confident, build up your grit scores by practicing the habit of completing small gospel goals to the end. Every step you take without giving up will lead you to eternal blessings.
