How to be Successful - by Learning a New Skill in 20hrs
Good day steemians, my blog post is about Self Development and Life Skills. With Life Skills we develop stronger self esteems and become more confident. We also become more valuable to ourselves and others. I trust you will enjoy my topic for today.
How long does it take to learn a new skill? Have you ever heard that it takes 10 000 hours? As it turns out 10 000 hours is what is required for expert level achievements as described in Malcolm Gladwell's book, Outliers and not aquiring the skill per se.
According to Josh Kaufman, 20 hours of focused effort is what is required.
Enjoy the session.
The 4 Steps to acquiring a new skill in 20 hours :
- Deconstruct the "skill" as much as possible;
- Learn enough to self-correct;
- Remove the barriers to practice;
- Practice at least 20hours.
