I really love this video! Grit means to me never give up or if you fail try again untill you succseed. The basketball player had a nice shot for the win but I like that he looked at the game tape and practiced his mistakes.

To me grit means to persevere and to never give up. You should always try your hardest even if it is not the best thing in the world. All that matters is that it is YOUR best not your friend's, not Mr. Meyer's, yours. Think, if you don't persevere and give up if there is a challenge, where will you get in life? You will never face difficulties so your knowledge will never grow. You have to understand that if you just sit around all day or ignore obstacles then you will not achieve much. Nelson Mandela once said, "It always seems impossible until it's done." This means to never give up. For example, if you want a nice view of a sunset on top of a mountain you have to climb. If you get tired you can't just sit there in dark, you have to persevere and keep climbing. That's the same thing as more simple things, like completing home-fun or playing a sport. You have to keep going. So persevere, and if you don't want to listen to me then listen to all the wise and amazing people in the world.

I think grit means however much we get bullied by someone or they say" You are terrible at doing this", we should never give up and continue our journey on what we like and not what other people think about us and what they are going to do to us.

To me grit means to never give up and keep trying your best: have perseverance. In the video, I saw basketball players who was shooting and juking the person who was blocking them. They didn't just got to be good at first, but they practiced their way out to the national basketball association. I think that every person should have confident and should keep trying to reach their goals.

I think grit means that whatever we like or what we are passionate about, we should never quit on what we like. I also once did this. Instead we should continue on what we like and we should not let other people stop us from what we like.

You must have grit to succeed you can just say ur not going to do something because you just don’t feel like it to have grit you must believe no days off and just work hard and eventually you will succeed for example when I was young I did not know how to shoot a basket ball or throw a football but instead of just giving up I kept working keep trying and most importantly I failed but eventually with all that hard work I figured out how to throw a football or shoot a basketball a had grit grit is the most important thing for someone to have grit define‘s if you succeed or if you fail that why I think grit is one of the most important things to have

To me, grit means to never give up and stay strong. Whenever I hear the word grit, it just reminds me of power. If you don't have grit, you won't succeed. If you don't succeed, have grit. If you never fail in your life before, then there's a problem. Failing is a part of learning. If you don't fail, you won't learn more stuff. Don't compare yourself to others, just focus on your talents. Like there's this basketball star named Iverson I think. (I might've gotten the name wrong.) But he used to live out in the streets. He hated it so much being out there, so, he decided to take a turn. He tried out for basketball and became really good. He never gave up and kept practicing. That's how he became the star we all know. So, if you want to reach your goals, you have to have a place where the grit power can fit in your brain.

I think grit means that if you do something small that can hurt you like fall you get up and deal with it and not let it bug you for the rest of the day because the rest of the day would not be a good day. Another example of grit is if you miss an easy shot for a goal for soccer or a score for basketball don’t let yourself down and dont make your day worse by thinking about it.
