15分鐘書房EP#11 : 恆毅力：成功的關鍵特質與培養 : Grit by Angela Duckworth恆毅力 Grit by Angela Duckworth恆毅力 (Grit) 是一個在當代心理學與個人成就領域中備受關注的概念，由心理學家安琪拉·達克沃斯 (Angela Duckworth) 提出。它被定義為「對目標一致性的興趣熱情」（Passion for Long-Term Goals）與「努力投入的毅力」（Perseverance of Effort）的結合體，強調個體在追求長期目標時所展現的熱情和堅持不懈的精神，即使面對失敗和困境也能持續努力。達克沃斯博士的個人經歷也印證了恆毅力的重要性，她從小不被父親視為「天才」，卻透過對工作的熱愛和不懈的努力，最終獲得了麥克阿瑟獎，並透過科學研究證明了恆毅力是可培養而非固定不變的特質。一、 恆毅力的定義與核心要素恆毅力並非智力或天賦的同義詞，而是成功的重要預測因子，甚至比智力更為關鍵。它包含兩個核心要素：熱情 (Passion)：熱情不僅僅是對某件事的在乎，更是「持久關注同樣的終極目標，始終不渝。每天醒來想的問題都和你睡前想的一樣。」（《恆毅力》讀後心得）這份熱情就像「羅盤般的，需要透過時間打造、校準、直到找到正確的方向，指引個體到達想去的地方」（教師如何培養學生的恆毅力？）。熱情的發現是一個過程，需要願意嘗試不同的事物，並在長時間的專注練習和覺察中持續燃燒。它並非一蹴而就，也非所有時刻都充滿快樂，但對目標的深信會賦予其長久的意義和價值。毅力 (Perseverance)：毅力是指面對困難時持續前進的能力，即使遇到挫折也不會被打倒，會很快地再站起來，持續前進。（不用天生堅強，也能擁有《恆毅力》）這份堅持常常建立在「控制感」之上，相信「我做得到」。對於高恆毅力者而言，當他們識別出某個目標對其「大局目標」至關重要時，他們會傾向於堅持不懈，克服困難。（TOP 3 TIPS from GRIT by ANGELA DUCKWORTH）二、 恆毅力與成就的關聯達克沃斯博士的研究，特別是在美國西點軍校的調查，強烈支持了恆毅力與成就之間的高度相關性：西點軍校的「野獸營」：西點軍校的錄取過程極其嚴格，但每年新生訓練「野獸營」仍有許多人因艱苦而退出。達克沃斯博士的研究發現，學業成績、體能、智商、家庭社經地位等因素都與退學與否無關，而「最相關的是正是她所測量的恆毅力程度。」（不用天生堅強，也能擁有《恆毅力》）這表明恆毅力是預測堅持下去的關鍵因素。「天賦 x 努力 = 技能」與「技能 x 努力 = 成就」：達克沃斯博士提出了成功的公式。她強調「沒有努力，你的天賦什麼都不是，只是你未被發掘的潛力。沒有努力，你的技能什麼都不是，只是你本來可以做到卻沒有做到的事情。有了努力，天賦才能轉化為技能，同時，努力也使技能產生效益。」（GRIT Audiobook Free）「成就 x 機運 = 非凡的成功」：有評論者在達克沃斯公式的基礎上，加入了「機運」的因素，認為頂尖成就除了天賦、努力和技能外，還需生逢其時的機運。（《恆毅力》讀後心得）三、 恆毅力的可培養性恆毅力不是天生的特質，而是可以透過後天養成與練習的：從內而外培養：培養興趣：協助學生探索自身興趣，興趣的產生需要時間的投入與培育，而非憑空出現。即使一開始索然無味，也需要持續探索。（教師如何培養學生的恆毅力？, 天賦決定成功？恆毅力才是！）刻意練習 (Deliberate Practice)：當發現興趣後，必須「全心全意的投入練習，讓自己進步以達到精熟的狀態，且必須正視自己的缺點並加以克服，抱持著每一天都要比昨天更好的態度，周而復始的練習。」（教師如何培養學生的恆毅力？）刻意練習需要明確的挑戰目標、全神貫注、即時且實用的反饋，以及不斷檢討與進步。（學習筆記：）連結目的 (Purpose)：相信所做的事情具有重大意義，這不僅能點燃熱情，也能在逆境中保持動力。高恆毅力者往往將他們的目標與「造福他人」的意向結合，從而產生使命感。（教師如何培養學生的恆毅力？）培養希望 (Hope)：希望是一種能夠面對各種困境的能力，讓人看到未來的可能性。即使面對挑戰或自我懷疑，也能堅持下去，持續追求目標，保持正向思考。（學習筆記：, 教師如何培養學生的恆毅力？）正向自我對話與感恩練習：訓練控制想法的恆毅力，用正向態度面對困境。（造就「超人」的六種恆毅力）從外而內培養 (環境與文化)：成人引導：父母、教練、老師、老闆、導師、朋友等都能幫助個人培養恆毅力。「困難任務規定」與課外活動：達克沃斯建議家長讓孩子參與至少一項他們自己選擇的課外活動，並要求高中生至少投入一項活動一年以上，這有助於培養興趣、練習、目的和希望。（Grit 比天賦智商更重要，家長該如何培養孩子的恆毅力？）長期的課外活動參與被認為是富裕家庭孩子成年後恆毅力差異的主要來源之一。（閱讀| 恆毅力-人生成功的究極能力）組織文化與身份認同：組織文化，如西點軍校和西雅圖海鷹隊，可以幫助新成員內化團隊價值觀，使其以團隊為榮，不願成為「害群之馬」，從而提升整體成員的恆毅力。身份認同（Who am I? What does someone like me do in a situation like this?）在面對困難時，其影響力甚至超過對成本效益的分析。（GRIT Audiobook Free）師長的身教與態度：教師本身具備樂觀、恆毅力的特質，並多使用正向話語鼓勵學生，以及採用「精熟取向的學習目標」和培養「成長性思維」來面對學習任務，都能有效提升學生的恆毅力。（教師如何培養學生的恆毅力？, 成長性思維行動指南）四、 恆毅力的批判與細微差異儘管恆毅力概念廣受歡迎，但也存在一些批判和需要釐清的細節：與「盡責性」的區別：恆毅力與盡責性（conscientiousness）概念相似，高度相關 (r=0.77)，但並不完全相同。恆毅力更側重於「長期一致的興趣以及對興趣的表現上」，而盡責性則更關乎專注、警覺和注重細節。（軍校生恆毅力概念建構與量表發展研究, 你們對《恆毅力》這本書有什麼想法？ - Reddit）非普適性，領域特定性：有研究表明，達克沃斯原先提出的恆毅力二階雙因子模型（熱情與毅力）可能不完全適用於非西方文化背景，例如中國軍校生的研究顯示，他們的恆毅力概念包含「目標認同、人際支持、自我效能、成長思維和正向因應」五個子概念，且「毅力可能先於熱情產生」。這意味著恆毅力可能是一種「特定領域限定」的特質，而非普適的人格特質。（軍校生恆毅力概念建構與量表發展研究）ADHD患者的考量：有批評指出，過度強調恆毅力可能會掩蓋某些群體（如ADHD患者）面臨的真實挑戰，因為這可能將他們的注意力缺陷內化為性格缺陷，導致缺乏策略，無法有效從錯誤中學習。對於這些群體，僅僅說一切都靠「堅毅」可能具有誤導性。（對最近流行的「毅力」概念，一個有趣的批判。 - Reddit）避免職業倦怠：持續不斷地訓練恆毅力可能會導致「職業倦怠」，其特徵是「脫力、憂鬱、憤世嫉俗」。因此，主動休息是巔峰表現者最難學習的一種恆毅力，但卻是保護內在驅動力的必要投資，包括充足睡眠、身體修復活動和完全歸零的假期。（造就「超人」的六種恆毅力）不應誇大單一特質：恆毅力固然重要，但它並非成功的唯一或最重要的特質。達克沃斯本人也強調「性格是多元的」，除了恆毅力（內在性格，如自制力）之外，還有助於人際關係的「人際性格」（如感恩、社交智慧）和促進開放學習的「智力性格」（如好奇心、熱情）。在評價他人時，道德品質（如誠實、正直）甚至比勤奮更受重視。（GRIT Audiobook Free）五、 培養恆毅力的具體實踐與建議

*Inspired by her own childhood experiences and supported by in-depth research and fascinating examples – from military cadets to Albert Einstein – Grit challenges the conventional wisdom and cult of IQ and champions the importance of good habits and old-fashioned determination.

Best Quotes FromEp. 9: Grit by Angela DuckworthWhy do naturally talented people frequently fail to reach their potential while other far less gifted individuals go on to achieve amazing things? The secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a passionate persistence (Good Reads, n.d., para. 2). Angela has found that grit—a combination of passion and perseverance for a singularly important goal—is the hallmark of high achievers in every domain (Duckworth, n.d., para. 3).
This book became one of those trendy books after Angela Duckworth's TedTalk.

Good KidsHow To Unlock Grit in an Unpredictable World (with Angela Duckworth)If you’ve ever sat through professional development as an educator, you’ve heard of Angela Duckworth. Both her research and personal experience in the classroom suggests that IQ isn’t always helpful in determining successful outcomes for students. Rather, a more important predictor of success is “grit,” a growth mindset, and feeling like you have a purpose that’s bigger than yourself. So how do we unlock grit and resilience in our kids, especially when the world is so uncertain and unpredictable?
