#TED Talk 2 Grit: The power of passion and perseverance

Q: What do you think is the key to success?

A: I think is the passion, effort and grit. When I am passionate about something, I will be involved in it and enjoy the process. But, not everything is so simple to complete. If we have a long-term goal, we need enough effort and grit. With these three keys, I believe that it's not far from success.


Five words I learn from the talk

stratospheric

very high or great.

ex: It's an amazing camera, but the price is stratospheric!

grit

courage and determination despite difficultly.

ex: It takes true grit to stand up to a bully.

perseverance

continued effort and determination

ex: Through hard work and perseverance, he worked his way up to the top.

stamina

the physical and mental strength to do something that might be difficult and will take a long time.

ex: The triathlon is a great test of stamina.

intuition

an ability to understand or know something immediately based on your feelings rather than facts.

ex: Often there's no clear evidence one way or the other and you just have to base your judgment on intuition.

#Is there a short-term or long-term goal that you want to achieve in your life?

I am not particularly satisfied with my figure. I always think I am too fat. So, I made a long-term plan to loss weight. This plan starts in June of this year until I lose 6 kg. I know I am not a person who loses weight easily, so I think this plan will take at least one year. I want to adjust my diet and establish exercise habits to complete my plan. This can not only lose weight but also maintain a good body shape.  It's almost five months now, and I find that my weight has dropped and my figure is better than before. I will continue this plan until the day when it is truly successful.
