Grit
Buy on Amazon"I sat down at the table with them, and as the camera started to roll, there was a stack of index cards in front of him that his producer had prepared with questions about my book.

Buy on Amazon"When I wrote Grit, I thought to myself, well, I guess I'll just try to explain without jargon things that psychological scientists would be able to appreciate with jargon.
