i have grit because even though i do not want to come to school i still make effort to come to class everyday. the only reason i come to school is for my daughter. if it wasn't for her i would have dropped out along time ago. i am interested in developing my grit so that way i can become successful in life and give my daughter and future son/daughter a  better life then i have. i plan to finish high school n go to medical school.

if i can change a characteristic as a student it would be me being lazy . I'm not into school work and i don't try as hard as i should to try to complete my work and pass my tests. i need to become more hardworking.

to me failure looks like someone who drops out of school and doesn't look for a job and goes around being people for their hard working money. for example i was on the train yesterday and this guy was begging for money so he can buy enfimil for his babies .
