Angela Duckworth said she wouldn't be where she is without her marriage. Not her grit. Not her network. Her marriage.

A Silicon Valley VC told her off the record: he screens founders for grit, sure, but he's really screening for a stable marriage.

First night meeting her husband, she dreamed she was walking down the aisle. Turned around, it was him. She wrote it in her journal before their second date.

Her husband was the one who pushed her to write about their marriage crisis, not the happy years. She calls it the most courageous thing he's ever done.

Two relentless overachievers built a marriage on “just outwork it.” Worked great until it didn't, and they'd never told anyone what broke.
