People’s personalities are a plethora of peculiarities that make them who they are. No one is merely this or simply that--everyone has a blend of traits that shape their perspective and their lives. Angela Duckworth, the author of Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, wrote “In the end, the plurality of character operates against any one virtue being uniquely important” (Duckworth, 274). No one can be solely defined by a single characteristic; people are multidimensional and their successes and failures are caused by a combination of all of their traits.
Although grit is an important factor in success, it’s definitely not the end all be all. Talent does in fact play a large part in determining success. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, a professor
