GRIT

The greatest predictor of success is persistence & grit —- unknown DA

Being a Gold Circle member at @bigbusinessentrepreneurs founded by @adamstottcoach has given me the rare opportunity to learn directly from UK-wide entrepreneurs, musicians, founders, actors, social media & TV personalities and athletes. Despite their different paths, the consistent thread among them is unmistakable. It’s grit. The relentless persistence to move forward step-by-step, the ability to see failure as opportunity, and the deep belief in themselves even when success seemed distant.

They dig deep, live fully in the present — knowing that looking back brings depression, looking ahead brings anxiety — so they stay rooted in “the now”. They are master storytellers, brutally authentic, never pretending to be anyone but themselves, and they consistently tap into a higher spiritual-self for strength. They expect to fail — most of them do, often — and they forget about being perfect altogether. It’s not magic, it’s pure consistency, acceptance, and courage to never, ever give up. Some quotes from those in the video that stood out:

➡️ BBC Dragons Den @kellyhoppen “Making money & how you succeed in business is by taking small steps”.
