I was in the beginning of Malcom Gladwell’s “Outliers” – a very good book, highly recommended – when I heard about this so-called “The 10,000 Hours” rule. Scientific research to successful figures reveal that to prepare someone for THE opportunity that one day will come, he or she should already have gone through a minimum 10,000 hours of practice. This is roughly equivalent to a 3-hour practice everyday for about 10 years.
This explains why only those who had determination and able to focus on something will be successful, while those who jumps around from one thing to another will likely fail. Talent and Intelligence are just a small part of success, and matter only up to a certain level.
Bruce Lee once said, “I’m not afraid of a person who practice 1000 kicks one time, but I’m afraid of a person who practice one kick 1000 times.”
Well said master!
