About Angela Duckworth

Dr Angela Duckworth is a 2013 MacArthur Fellow and an associate professor of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. She is an expert in non-IQ competencies, including grit and self-control. A highly sought-after international speaker, her TED talk on grit has been viewed by over 10 million people.

Duckworth’s hypothesis that the real guarantor of success may not be inborn talent but a special blend of resilience and single-mindedness grew out of her upbringing: as a child her scientist father lovingly bemoaned the fact his daughter was ‘no genius’. Duckworth was determined to prove him wrong and spent her youth smashing through every academic barrier. As an adult she became focused on proving her theory and to find out if grit can be learned or cultivated. It was out of this that she created her own Character Lab at the University of Pennsylvania.

¿Cuál es el secreto del éxito? La clave del éxito no es el talento ni la suerte, como siempre hemos creído. La clave del éxito es una mezcla de pasión, perseverancia y coraje: «grit».
La obra de Angela Duckworth, profesora de psicología y pionera en su campo, ha revolucionado el panorama cultural y científico al demostrar, con estudios contrastados científicamente, que el éxito en la vida tiene poco que ver con la inteligencia y mucho con el autocontrol, la perseverancia y la capacidad de levantarse después de una caída. Triunfamos cuando nos dedicamos en cuerpo y alma a objetivos que nos hacen felices y nos apasionan. La buena noticia es que la determinación puede cultivarse. Padres, estudiantes, educadores, atletas y todos aquellos que quieran alcanzar la excelencia o ayudar a otros a alcanzarla encontrarán en esta obra la información, la ciencia, los ejemplos y el aliento que precisan.
«Sin duda, el libro más transformador y revelador que he leído este año.» Sonja Lyubomirsky, profesora de la Universidad de California
«Amena, atractiva y absolutamente convincente. Las ideas que contiene esta obra podrían transformar la educación, el liderazgo de empresas y la vida de los lectores. (…) Un tesoro nacional.» Lawreence H. Summers, presidente emérito de la Universidad de Harvard
«Grit inspirará a todo aquel que lo lea a poner todo su empeño en aquello que le apasiona.» Sal Khan, fundador de Khan Academy
