Evaluation
The data I gathered through my piece showed that the majority of the persons who attended the exhibition believed their personal success was rooted in something similar or explicitly stated as grit. Many of their responses consisted of short phrases or words such as Persevere, Discipline, or Embracing the suck. While there were so many different ways to put it, the common factor was that most people believe success is not rooted in your resources or circumstances, but rather, how willing you are to work hard, believe in yourself, and never give up.
