Tips Motivation / / December 19, 2019
Today I accidentally found out about an interesting rule, which at first simply drew his round figure, and then the meaning. This rule literally erases all the inequalities between the "gifted" and "mere mortals". Of course, I can not promise you that, thanks to this you will become a genius in physics or artist. But to become a true professional in your chosen field, you definitely can.
For fans of "high-speed growth" is hardly suitable, because it will have to work long and hard. But the result is guaranteed!
In his book «Outliers: The Story of Success» Malcolm Gladduel considering the success stories of different companies. To be more precise, in this book we painted the factors that contributed to the success of a company. In the same book more than once referred to the "rule of 10, 000 hours," which states that if you to practice in the performance of a specific task for 10 000 hours, it will certainly become expert. And it does not depend on your genetic predispositions or brilliant talents. Anyone can learn to paint, play the piano or to manipulate the rates on the exchange.
This rule is built on the basis of studies of Anders Eriksson. As exemplified success «The Beatles» and Bill Gates, who according to estimates carried out for the programming of the computer about 10 000 hours, and then was able to make a significant leap forward. As for «The Beatles», they sounded much brighter after worked about 10 000 hours.
Gladduel again emphasizes that a key success factor is not high IQ person, and hard work on a specific task for a long time and, of course, the environment. Nobody, nor the great scientists or famous musicians or professional athletes are not able to succeed alone. Someone with an IQ of 195 did not end their lives owner of the farm, and someone with the IQ 150 becomes a scientific genius who changed the world upside down (Albert Einstein).
10 000 hours - a 5-year full-time or 10 years of work for 3 hours a day.
Believe it or not. Or you can decide to check this right in practice;)
