In going into this reading, I completely agreed with what she had to say in the beginning which was "the students who tried hardest did the best, and the students who didn't try very hard didn't do very well". I have always thought this was true and it's what has made me work so hard for the things I want. At least thats what I thought which is why getting a 3.25 on this test kind of surprised me. I know I tend to loose interest in things if I don't see immediate results so I can see where these results come from but for some reason I expected it to be higher. I think it might be because I expect a lot from myself. I can see how this test is correct though, I answered every question honestly and I completely believe they described me well.
Since grit is a good quality to have I definitely want to improve my score but to do that I will have to accomplish many small tasks first. I can start by setting small goals for myself and slowly accomplishing them and also in the mean time setting one large goal that will take time to reach. In doing so, I'll get the satisfaction of achieving the smaller goals all while working towards my main one. This will teach me a new type of patience and hard work but I think it is worth it to be successful.
