GRIT.... Do you have it?!

After my Cardio X workout last night, I decided to sit down and read some articles in my Women's Health magazine... Often times I can find some inspiration to dig a little deeper from these articles... One in particular from the latest edition caught my eye... "Determination... How to get what you want" it said... I was intrigued. The article went on to talk about the difference in someone meeting there goals or not is often times grit... What the heck is grit?!? "Grit is the sustained perseverance and passion for long-term goals, and why some people gut out that last series of sit ups in boot camp while others flop on the floor when the burn really kicks in. Grit entails working strenuously toward challenges and maintaining effort and interest despite failure, adversity, and plateaus.While some people cut their losses when faced with boredom or disappointment, those with grit stay the course". Perfection! Just what I needed to read... I've met plenty of failures, adversities, and plateaus in my life, but when I set my mind on a goal I really want to achieve the grit kicks in... I will push myself to make sure I break through that plateau or overcome the feelings of failure... I will BRING IT!
