Tenacity

Round Square Explorers discover in themselves the ability to persevere when confronted with challenge, and learn from their mistakes, with a readiness to try again. They develop and demonstrate discipline, determination, grit and resilience, pushing themselves beyond their perceived limits.

They draw-on, and cultivate, a strong physical, mental and emotional spirit that enables them to keep going in the face of hardships, limitations and impediments, and bounce back from disappointments and difficulties.

A steadfast self-belief, is built through focusing on achievable goals that can be reached (with a struggle), leading to optimism and confidence when faced with future challenges.
