He doesn't need citations. Your citation is completely irrelevant, it has nothing to do with memorization at all. Memorizing 10 digits is extremely easy barring individual memory issues, there's no argument to be had.

The closest Americanism that comes to mind for this term would be "grit", which I think is a bit different as it's more about enduring hardship (or hard work) than actually working hard. I think the word "hussle" is
