GRIT is the capacity to dig deep and do whatever it takes–even sacrifice, struggle and suffer
– to achieve your most worthy goals in the best ways.
GRIT(™) Program on Mindset consists of the GRIT Gauge(™) pre- and post-assessment, assignments, and implementation tools that enhance and grow the quality and quantity of GRIT. It is in partnership with Dr. Paul G. Stoltz, grounded in his validated, research-based model for teaching and growing GRIT mindset (Growth, Resilience, Instinct, Tenacity, and Robustness).
The Student Report with GRIT Gauge results provides normed scores for the different components of GRIT, and explanations of what the scores mean and exercises and tips for improving these scores.
Activities and exercises offer application for this framework and assessment, helping students grow or build their GRIT through journaling, goal setting, and GRIT-specific actions. They have the ability to earn three Acclaim badges in GRIT, in Completion, Qualitative, and Experiential levels to demonstrate GRIT.
Our instructional materials include an Instructor Implementation Guide and Sample Assignments. The Implementation Guide support how to use the GRIT curriculum within. The Sample Assignments show how others have ‘gritified’ their assignments.

GRIT(TM) Program on Mindset
Quantitative
• Growth (mindset): a propensity to seek and consider new ideas, alternatives, approaches, and fresh perspectives. This component not only encourages individuals to be open-minded and curious; it also fosters a spirit of exploration and a willingness to simply "do more," to devote the extra time and energy it takes to stretch oneself, even in situations of adversity or significant challenge.
• Resilience: the capacity to not only bounce back from adversity or failure but also to deal with adversity constructively, turning an unsuccessful experience into "fuel" for increasing one’s effort in the next attempt. Resilience enables individuals to endure setbacks, to try again harder, and to keep seeking solutions. It develops the mindset that taking risks, facing adversity, or tackling anything difficult is more meaningful, more intrinsically motivating, and ultimately more rewarding than simply performing the minimum amount of work or taking on only what is easy in life or school.
• Instinct: the innate desire to pursue the most worthy goals in the smartest ways. This component reveals one’s capacity to harness past experiences and information gathered from others, to think critically, and to solve problems strategically. It encourages creativity, agility, and practicality in working toward goals.
• Tenacity: persistence toward the goal, in spite of difficulty or discomfort.This component also involves the ability to delay gratification, to repeatedly marshal focused energy and effort, and to willingly exhibit passionate personal commitment to a goal.
Qualitative
• Smart GRIT (aka "Effective" GRIT): the ability to reassess and reroute as needed to accomplish one’s goals in the face of adverse, uncertain, or dynamic conditions. Smart GRIT requires and fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, and creative problem-solving in pursuit of a goal. This component allows individuals to recognize that sometimes continued pursuit of a goal, especially in the same, repetitive manner, may not work. It is important that individuals continually assess their effort level and the effectiveness of their chosen methods to move forward in the way that will most likely bring success.
• Good GRIT: the awareness of others and the discipline of pursuing one’s goals in ways that can be beneficial to both one’s self and others. This component brings dimensions of social responsibility and altruism to the pursuit of goals to avoid possibly hurting or disregarding others. It is especially valuable in collaborative situations where individuals must adapt or align their needs and preferences with those of the larger group.
• Robust GRIT: the capacity to remain strong, energized, and effective over an extended period of time. Robustness is based on the premise that GRIT is a "finite resource" and must be preserved, channeled, and nourished so it is available when it is most needed to realize a particular goal. Robust GRIT encourages students to consider strategies that optimize work-life balance, long-term stamina, and well-being while simultaneously supporting progress on important and difficult projects.
