How to Create a Successful Mindset: The Science of Passion and Perseverance

Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins podcast. Have you ever looked at someone who's wildly successful and thought, they just must have been born with something I'm never going to have? Or maybe you look at your own life, your job, your goals, your relationship, and you just keep asking yourself, why can't I stick with this? Why am I not consistent? Why do I not have willpower?

Well, if you've ever felt like that, first of all, you're not lazy. You're not broken. You're just missing one thing. See, talent doesn't make people great. Grit does.

Hard work beats talent every time, especially when that work is driven by a purpose that won't let you quit. And that's what you and I are going to talk about today. We're going to talk about the mindset of high achievers and the psychology of perseverance. And we're going to dig into the real science of success. You're going to learn it's not luck.
