To be gritty, you’ve got to stick with something for a long time, overcoming setbacks and obstacles along the way. Someone who switches from goal to goal to goal cannot gain that vital grit. An athlete who switches from one sport to the other isn’t gritty. Grit is sticking to one thing for years or even decades. The second aspect of grit and maturity is just as important. Maturity comes by committing to a specific long-term goal, and regularly switching out or upgrading pathways or systems to realize the overarching goal.
Grit is stickability and flexibility of the path.
