Dale handed me a 90-pound jackhammer, three ten-foot ground rods, and the hardest test of my apprenticeship. The second rod hit hidden concrete. Sixteen inches of it. The only way through was brutal: climb the ladder backward, hug the jackhammer to your chest, and hang on while it tries to shake you loose. By the fourth rod, I wanted to quit. But Billy Wiggins' voice wouldn't let me. This is the story of how I learned that grit isn't just toughness-it's refusing to quit when quitting is the easiest option on the table.
