Also grit is an over hyped and under delivered construct of human cognition that really is only spoken of seriously nowadays by people trying to sell you something

grit makes me think of Bukowski novels like Post Office. Just a bunch of dudes laboring to look like they're working hard to please the boss, rather than to do the labor.

Personally grit makes me think of literal sand. Or dirt in general. It's something you wash off the first chance you get. Not exactly something to be celebrated.
