4. Grit means you face the hard, cold facts when necessary. You do not live in a cloud of theory and wishes.
Are you able to look at things as they are, not as you wish they could be? Could you get better at facing the facts?
Write down at least one Action Step you will do this week to improve your ability to face the facts. You can also select one of these three Action Steps to do.
1. Write down the name or initials of someone you wish would change or improve. Plan to look at him or her this week newly, not as you wish them to be, but as who they are.
2. Write down something that is not going right for you. Make a plan to not just hope it will improve on its own, but how you will look for the real reasons why it is not going well.
3. Write down an opinion you have that is not shared by others. Consider the possibility that you are wrong. What action can you do to examine the facts until you find out the truth about your opinion, right or wrong?
