<p>Grit: Why Passion And Persistence Are The Secrets To Success</p>

<p>Talent is overrated - learn what truly makes you succeed</p>

<p>Angela Duckworth’s seminal work on why passion and perseverance matter more than anything</p>

<p>Why do naturally talented people frequently fail to reach their potential while other far less gifted individuals go on to achieve amazing things? The secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a passionate persistence. In other words, grit.</p>

<p>MacArthur Genius Award-winning psychologist Angela Duckworth shares fascinating new revelations about who succeeds in life and why. Based on her cutting-edge research, Duckworth shows how many people achieve remarkable things not just by relying on innate natural talent, but by practising what she calls grit. She then offers a Grit Formula to help anyone to become more gritty, focusing on six key factors: hope, effort, precision, passion, ritual and prioritisation. She reveals:</p>

<p>- Why people who test high for talent often fail to achieve their potential, and why people who do not test high for talent often "overachieve" what others expect them to do

- How grit can be learned, whatever your IQ or circumstances

- Why stubbornness is a key characteristic of gritty people

- When to be stubborn and when giving up is the grittiest thing you can do

- How gritty people found their passion, and you can find yours

- How gritty experts practise, and how you can do the same in your own life

- What the people who care about you can do to boost your grit when you need it most

- How grit is cultivated in the highest-performing sports teams, companies and schools</p>

<p>Leaping past clichés such as 'success is all about hard work', Grit offers a fresh and motivating way to climb to heights far beyond what natural talent would predict.</p>

<p>Surrounded By Setbacks : Or, How To Succeed When Everything's Gone Bad</p>

<p>How to handle everything (and everyone) around you when all hell breaks loose, from the international bestselling author of Surrounded by Idiots.</p>

<p>Not everything goes the way we want it to - the world or people around us sometimes just spin out of control. Just consider the Covid pandemic for starters. Or how about that mad neighbour you have living next-door to you? Or when work seems to be going down the toilet when the competition keep outsmarting you? So how do you handle everything life throws your way when you'd really prefer to tell everyone to get stuffed?</p>

<p>Thomas Erikson will help you turn adversity into success with the help of the behavioural model made famous in Surrounded by Idiots. Starting by reminding us that life is as it is, Erikson helps you see that it is in fact useless to try to control everything happening around you. Instead of protesting when life throws you curveballs, focus instead on how to handle them. Just as you keep the weeds away from the garden to provide space and amazing flowers, you need to find an approach to adversity that works for you and will give you the chance to turn everything into success. Surrounded by Setbacks will help you pinpoint the approach that works for you and will entertain and empower you in equal measure.</p>

<p>Discover the secret of the writing on the wall for yourself and enjoy less stress and more success in your work and life. Written for all ages, this story takes less than an hour to read, but its unique insights will last a lifetime.</p>
