AAA. Referring to what you learned from Angela Lee Duckworth: Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance video and the 5 Characteristics of Grit—How Many Do You Have? article, address the following:

• Identify which one of the five characteristics of grit (courage, conscientiousness, endurance, resilience, excellence) you feel is most important for someone completing a BA.GS degree and why?
• How can the higher-education experience foster grit? For example, which characteristics of grit can you learn by striving toward a BA.GS degree?

BBB. Respond to the following paragraph. As you respond, offer at least two counterpoints to the arguments they present about the importance of the characteristic they selected.

1. The characteristic that I feel is most important for completing a BA. GS degree is endurance. I believe endurance is important because most bachelors degrees take up to 3-5 years depending on the amount of classes, breaks, vacations, semesters vs terms, etc…. I find that most people including myself want that instant gratification and don’t think about the length of time it takes to complete things. Life gets in the way, things change, and I think schooling placed by the wayside for most.

I do believe a person needs to display all 5 of those characteristics to a degree in order to be successful.

2. I believe the one most important characteristic of grit to possess when completing a BA.GS degree is resilience. I believe resilience is the most important characteristic because it is important to be able to recover from our failures and mistakes quickly to ensure we can still accomplish our goals in time. Through this course, we’ve learned how to set goals, plan accordingly, and how to stay on track. When we make a mistake, or get a bad grade for instance, it is important to learn from the mistakes and utilize what we’ve learned in the future. If we let a failure or mistake define us, it will set us back, and could hinder our ability to accomplish our goal.

I feel like all of the 5 characteristics of grit can be accomplished when working towards a BA.GS degree. Courage we should have to achieve our goals, and having a BA.GS degree should make us even more courageous by providing a variety of opportunities. Conscientiousness can be obtained through working through school work – we need to learn how to be aware. This applies when thinking about coursework, being aware of your ability to complete it, and being open to feedback. We all definitely need to have some endurance to keep pushing. Coursework can be overwhelming at times, especially when added onto everyday life stressors, so it is important to just keep pushing with that end goal in mind. And excellence… this can be achieved when all of the other characteristics are realized, and we can truly excel and succeed in this program.
