from Lessons with Dad Hosted by Ruthie Egger and Dad, Jim Egger
Continuing our discussion on GRIT by Angela Duckworth. Take the GRIT TEST at Angela's website: angeladuckworth.com/grit-scale/ In today's episode we learn that Effort Counts Twice and it is Multiplicitive! Also - the way to excellence is Deliberate Practice. Below is a summary of what Angela Duckworth recommends in her book GRIT: 1.Get a Coach, mentor or teacher that can help you get the most out of deliberate practice 2.Know the science – each of the basic requirements is unremarkable 1.Have a clear stretch goal 2.Full effort and concentration 3.Immediate and informative feedback 4.Repetition with reflection and reinforcement 3.Make Practice a Habit – routines are a godsend and take away decisions and thought about when and where to practice 4.Get the right mindset – deliberate practice can feel wonderful. It’s all about in-the-moment self awareness without judgment. It is not hours of brute force training. It is high quality, thoughtful training goals pursued for just a few hours a day, tops.
