Put Your Grit Into Gear!
I am talking about the true grit inside every one of us. You can call your true grit anything you want just engage it!
GRIT is the raw endurance, perseverance and passion that keep you going despite obstacles.

Realizing your hopes and dreams is IMPORTANT and takes WORK! Part of that is tuning into your passions. What passions fire you up and have you putting your true grit into gear? Just getting engaged in living life one moment at a time; learning and growing as a person too.
My Top 3
- Maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
- Writing creatively throughout the week.
- Continuing to learn and grow as a person on a daily basis.

This reminds me of an article I just read in the Wall Street Journal about cultivating grit and perseverance (in other words, character traits) in children rather than focusing just on building cognitive abilities. I think you’d like it!

Thanks for sharing and I will give it a read! I think every one of us needs to be well rounded and it starts at a very young age.

Great post, Renee!
That pic reminds me of Grass Lake, out of Bishop, CA – off of the North lake/Paiute Pass trail, in the great John Muir Wilderness!
Makes me homesick…even though I got up there twice this year!
My top three:
1. Once you have a place or activity in mind, get out there and start doing it!
2. Share the sites/sights with someone else to inspire them to do the same
3. If it scares you…it’ll probably be more fun!
Have an inspiring day!

Thanks so much! That pic is actually from on top of Mammoth Mountain in California. The John Muir Wilderness does run through that area – beautiful country to explore.
Love your Top 3, especially #3:)
