#104 – Gifted or Gritted

October 07, 2025

In this episode, we dive deep into the power of grit — what it really means, how it differs from effort, and why it might be the missing ingredient between where you are and where you want to be.

Marcus shares personal stories about growing up surrounded by talent, learning to outwork everyone else, and discovering that success doesn’t come from gifts alone — it comes from perseverance, passion, and relentless drive.

You’ll learn:
The difference between being gifted and being gritted
Why talent without persistence no longer guarantees success
How to build your “grit bank account” before you need it
The 4 key elements of grit: Interest, Practice, Purpose, and Hope
How to apply grit in business, real estate, and life

If you’ve ever felt stuck, burned out, or tempted to look for shiny tools instead of digging deeper within yourself, this one’s for you.

Tune in, take notes, and stay gritty, my friends.
