Effort counts twice towards achieving success from "summary" of Grit by Angela Duckworth

Effort is a critical factor in achieving success. But it's not just about putting in the hours and hard work; it's about how you approach that effort. To truly succeed, you must not only work hard but also work smart. This means being strategic about where you focus your energy and how you channel your efforts. It's about having a clear goal in mind and being disciplined in pursuing it relentlessly. When you think about it, effort is really a two-fold endeavor. On one hand, it's about the quantity of work you put in - the sheer number of hours you dedicate to your craft. But on the other hand, it's also about the quality of that work. It's about how efficiently and effectively you use your time and resources. It's about being intentional and purposeful in your actions. This dual nature of effort is what gives it its power. When you combine sheer persistence with strategic direction, you create a potent force for success. It's like having a double-edged sword - one that allows you to cut through obstacles and challenges with precision and finesse. This is why effort counts twice towards achieving success. By understanding this concept, you can unlock your full potential and take your performance to the next level. Instead of simply grinding away aimlessly, you can focus your efforts on the activities that will bring you closer to your goals. You can work smarter, not just harder. And in doing so, you can maximize your chances of success in whatever you set out to achieve.
