Dr. Michael Gervais and Dr. Angela Duckworth on "grit"

Great new podcast here from Seahawks' high performance strategist, Dr. Michael Gervais. Gervais, who co-founded Winforever Consulting with Pete Carroll and recently featured him on the Finding Mastery podcast series, talks to renowned UPenn professor Dr. Angela Duckworth, the author of Grif: The Power of Passion and Perseverance. Dr. Duckworth "studies grit and self-control, two attributes that are distinct from IQ and yet powerfully predict success and well-being."

As you probably know, Pete Carroll, Gervais, and the Seahawks have made the concept of "grit" a big part of their program, so it's definitely worth a listen.
