このbitの内容

1. 才能が過大評価される理由

   Picture two students starting JEE coaching on the same day. One is quicker at maths and everyone notices.

2. 努力は2倍重要

   Duckworth offers a simple pair of equations to explain why. Talent is how fast your skill improves when you put in effort.

3. 興味は見つけるのでなく育てるもの

   Many people wait for a passion to strike them like lightning. Duckworth says that is not how interests form.

4. 苦手な部分を集中的に練習する

   Gritty people do not just put in hours. They practise in a particular way that researchers call deliberate practice.

5. 目的と希望が歩みを支える

   Interest gets you started, but what keeps you going for decades? Duckworth points to purpose, the sense that your work matters to other people.

6. 実践に移す

   Start by writing down one goal you care about for the next 2 years, then list the smaller goals that feed into it and cut anything that does not. This week, pick one specific weakness in a skill you want and practise only that for 20 minutes a day, asking someone for honest feedback.
