你的人生是一场马拉松，还是一次短跑？

发音讲解

Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years. And working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit is living a life like it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
