Picasso ... Mozart ... Elon Mask ... Kobe Bryant ... and other talented and famous people stunned the world with their creations ...
What do you expect to have done to reach this level of performance? How long did it take? But what do the elite do differently from us to perfect their goals to this degree?
OK…
You and I can and many others can master the drawing after twenty hours of training. But will this make us painters in the status of Picasso ?! You can also as many can learn music after twenty hours. But will this make you musicians like Mozart's talent ?! You can be a basketball master twenty hours later; but will this make you a Kobe Bryant player?
Let's agree ...
According to John Kaufmann's theory, anyone can master a skill, such as programming, as long as he likes and wants to learn after twenty hours of intensive, well-planned training, but in this article we focus on universality rather than just mastering skill. That is exactly what John Hayes spent decades seeking Beyond his knowledge.
For many years he has been studying some of the most talented creators who have achieved worldwide fame, such as Picasso, Mozart, and Kobe Bryant ... years to achieve the role of effort, practice and knowledge in making the best performers in different areas of excellence. Three lessons are worth mentioning before starting to narrate that John had reached them after research and gathering methods supported scientifically, if you wanted to embark on your journey to global Let you procrastination and continued this article and adhere to the habits, and see ...
Lesson One: Ten Hours of Silence
Heinz began his research by studying and analyzing thousands of musical pieces produced between 1685 and 1900, motivated by an answer to one of the key questions: When does a person interested in music become a world-renowned musician?
In the end Hayes had prepared a list of 500 musical pieces and symphonies played all over the world and considered masterpieces in the field. These world music were written by 76 composers, and then Hayes set a timeline for the professional life of each composer, Works before they produce their first world business.
To discover the following ...
That each composer spent almost ten years before the first work achieved global fame; that is, did not produce someone amazing work without the first decade of practice, here it should be noted that this applies almost to all the musicals in the list; out of 500 pieces were not excluded from them Only three were written in the eighth or ninth year. Even an artist of Mozart's genius was no exception; he had to work for at least ten years before producing anything of universal value.
In follow-up studies, Professor Heinz found similar patterns among the categories of painters and poets as well. He began to refer to this period of hard work and little recognition and results as "ten years of silence." These results were confirmed by research by professors such as Ericsson, Research has shown that you need to spend 10,000 hours to become an expert in your field. This idea was later accepted by Malcolm Gladwell. However, after Hayes, Eriksson and other researchers looked deeper, they discovered that time was just one part Of the equation, and that success was not m Re the product of a decade or 10,000 hours of work and practice.
Now to understand what is required of you to elevate your abilities, master your skill, and achieve world fame, you ...
Lesson Two: Deliberate Practice
People often use their hours as an expression of hard work in their conversation, and as proof of how hard they are doing, we find someone who says, "I worked for 60 hours this week!", Although hard work for long hours makes you tired. You are the best in your field, even if you spent 10,000 hours in your career. It's not just about how many hours you spend working, it's like a day-long workout in the gym and random exercise, and then he's expected to win the Olympic gold medal for weight lifting. But does it happen?
Of course not ... In fact, all this time of effort was to train in the skill of staying long in the gym, not a training in the skill of weight lifting!
So the mouse, you guys, lies in deliberate practice, not just practice ...
One of the best examples of this is Kobe Bryant, one of the most successful basketball players of all time, with five NBA titles and two Olympic gold medals, and more than $ 200 million during his career. In his first experience with Kobe in the US team, after a hard day of training, Kobe put his phone down to sleep with some one-and-a-half hour training, and lifting weights for an hour. And when the time came to wake up was exhausted due to lack of sleep, but he was surprised Kobe on his condition continues to the fourth hour to complete 800 of the basketball jumping exercises, which was focused on the frequency of focus on others!
Now let's go to ...
Lesson 3: Apply this to your life
You might think you do not have the natural talent of Kobe Bryant, or the brilliant brilliance of Mozart, who was called genius genius for ten years before he even produced world-famous work, but you are willing to take inspiration from them, and follow the same approach to your work with ten years From practicing "Ten Years of Silence" to an hour's worth of focus and deliberate exercise on a daily basis can bring you amazing results in the long run, just all you need is ....
