Grounded in rich, revealing stories from the heroes of history, Mastering the Power of Grit unearths the timeless lessons learned from the legends of grit, and the corresponding strategies, tactics, tips and tools you can use to master the power of grit to achieve your own most daring dreams and goals.
Learn to Master the Power of Grit
Grit is the great game changer on the path to power, high-achievement, excellence and success. Virtually all of the great hustlers and heroes of history have been marked by grit—from the builders and captains of industry to the leaders and masters of political power, from the great social activists and revolutionary leaders, to today's leading inventors, athletes, artists and entrepreneurs.
The message of these celebrated champions of perseverance, resilience, determination, and guts spans boundaries and echoes across time: If you are not achieving your dreams and goals, there is still hope. What you need is a new strategy, new tactics and tools, a new mindset for success.
Discover the Secrets of the Superstars of Grit
We all want more out of life. Yet, there are some people who are getting things done—remarkable things—on a regular and consistent basis. This has always been the case. Throughout history we can see that some people—people who do not necessarily have any greater natural talent, intelligence or capacity—are able to make things happen and get things done. Sometimes the most ordinary individuals, from the most obscure backgrounds, facing any number of seemingly insurmountable obstacles are able to soar to the greatest heights of society. What is it about these people? What is their secret? What do they know, think or do that escapes the notice of the vast majority?
Master the Strategies, Tactics and Tools of the Titans of Grit
Drawing on his graduate school training at San Diego State and Harvard, as well as his training and experience as a qualitative researcher at Columbia, where he now teaches, Johnny Welch reveals the most critical patterns and themes that surface in the historical record of those who mastered the power of grit—champions and heroes who stand as timeless exemplars of perseverance, resilience, hardiness, optimism, and guts—men and women like Theodore Roosevelt, Ben Franklin, and FDR…Arnold, Lincoln, and Oprah, and so many more...Jackie Robinson, Eleanor Roosevelt, Disney, Reagan, and JFK.
In Mastering the Power of Grit, you will:
- Discover the secret weapon of the great hustlers and heroes of history.
