Get that GRIT!

Buy it HERE on Amazon

We have all wanted to quit. Whether the source of our anxiety is a big plate of broccoli or an impossibly long book, the idea of giving up is nothing new. But, while we giggle at the goofy pictures, and shout the tagline together, we can learn an important truth about how our brain works. And, as we watch new friends learn how to push through familiar difficulties, we find that struggling is natural, no problem defines us, and our success starts with a decision.
