SUMMARY:Family Action Network (FAN) -  Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best
UID:647740@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION: In her first book\, the #1 bestseller Grit\, Angela Duckworth\, (FAN ’12\, ’16)\, the Rosa Lee and Egbert Chang Professor at the University of Pennsylvania\, showed that a common denominator of successful strivers is a blend of passion and perseverance. Her new book\, Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best\, springs from her deepening realization that grit\, while necessary\, is sometimes not enough. How you position yourself to meet a challenge can be crucial.  Duckworth’s research reveals the enormous influence wielded by everything from the objects within arm’s reach to our peers and mentors\, and even our zip code. We are often told to make the best of our situation\, but it is far better\, she argues\, to make the situation better first. Highlighting four essential elements of successful situations (peers\, mentors\, space\, and culture)\, she shows how high performers like Taylor Swift\, Michael Phelps\, and Jerry Seinfeld create situations that make the most of their grit. Along the way she explores why personality shifts from one situation to the next\, how to conquer temptation without willpower\, and how the company we keep shapes who we become.\n\nMore Info: https://www.familyactionnetwork.net/events/situated-find-the-people-and-places-that-bring-out-your-best/\n\nWebcast Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/5217920827632/WN_bn_JAzXOTAC_DybYcjDjuQ#/registration\n\nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/5217920827632/WN_bn_JAzXOTAC_DybYcjDjuQ#/registration
