Really appreciate the comment regarding foot note [3] -

"Now that we know what we're looking for, that leads to other questions. For example, can this quality be taught? After four years of trying to teach it to people, I'd say that yes, surprisingly often it can. Not to everyone, but to many people. [3] Some people are just constitutionally passive, but others have a latent ability to be relentlessly resourceful that only needs to be brought out."

Thank god. I dont know about your environment, but I am sick of coming across people who cite genius and "natural abilities" as factors of people's success... hate it when people cant acknowledge hardwork!
