Grit and Perseverance

Hello everyone.
I hope everyone's  healthy.

This week in reading I learnt a bout grit my learning goal was to Think while reading, pick up new information, and come up with new ideas and thinking. This week I read an article about a NZ runner that helped train some of our best runners. We thought about what grit and perseverance is and what they mean. When your doing something hard and you just want give up but you don´t that´s called using grit and perseverance. Have you ever shown perseverance or grit in your life?

  1. Hi Mia,

    Nice explanation about what grit and perseverance is. Your examples really do show that you have grit and perseverance. I have seen you in Aerobics, and I know how much training goes into each competition. I bet there has been moments when you have been tired and just would like to give up, but you have kept on going. Good on you. When I first started to learn to drive, I found it really hard, and just wanted to give up. I realised that if I did give up then I would still need to rely on others to get me to places. So I persevered, and ended up getting my licence. How does it make you feel when you try something new, or keep on going when something gets hard? Do you feel really proud of yourself?
