Genius is not born, but trained. The greater the achievement, the more diligent you appear, and the longer you study business. The idea behind "10000 hour rule" is that what really determines a person's achievement is not talent or luck, but strict self-discipline and high-intensity dedication.
From 65438 to 0985, Professor Benjamin Bloom of the University of Chicago published an important book, How to Cultivate Young People's Talents. He studies how to find future talents among teenagers.
He surveyed 120 elites from all walks of life, including musicians, scientists, artists and engineers, but came to an awkward conclusion: genius can't be found in adolescence.
You can't find any universally applicable indicators, suggesting that this child will become a talent in the future. There is no correlation between IQ test and future achievement. However, there is one exception. It has a strong positive correlation with personal achievement. Professor Benjamin Bloom found that all the elites surveyed invested a lot of time and practiced hard. The greater the achievement, the more diligent you appear, and the longer you study business.
His last point is that genius is not born, but cultivated.
This view has aroused great repercussions, and many scholars follow up and engage in follow-up research. If Einstein had not been born, could we have trained more Einstein?
From 65438 to 0993, Professor Anders Eriksson from the University of Miami came to the Berlin Conservatory of Music and divided the students there into three groups: ordinary students, excellent students and excellent students. He wants to know what the best musicians have in common.
The only similarity found is the length of practice time.
Ordinary students practice playing the piano for about 4000 hours in total; Excellent students, about 8000 hours; No outstanding student has less than 10000 hours.
He published this discovery in a paper entitled "The Role of Emancipation Practice in Obtaining Expert Performance", which can be downloaded to a PDF file online.
In 2008, the best-selling author Malcolm Gladwell wrote this paper into his new book The Outsider: The Success Story. He conceptualized the conclusion of the original paper, claiming that there is a "10000 hours rule" (10000 hours rule), that is, success requires at least 10000 hours of investment.
Before it became popular, The Beatles had been performing in bars for 10000 hours.
Before Microsoft was founded, Bill? Gates programming time exceeds 10000 hours.
Painter Picasso, musician Mozart and basketball player Jordan all have more than 10000 hours of training.
After the book was published, it became the first best seller list in The New York Times.
He surveyed 120 elites from all walks of life, including musicians, scientists, artists and engineers, but came to an awkward conclusion: genius can't be found in adolescence.
In 2009, a man named Dan mclaughlin read this book. He is a commercial photographer, but he is less and less interested in his work. He wants to change his life. The book inspired him. On June 27th, 2009, Dan's 30th birthday, he decided to quit his job and began to work hard to become a professional golfer.
Before that, he had hardly played golf and was not even interested in the sport. His plan is to practice six hours a day, six days a week, and six years after resigning, totaling more than 10000 hours, and then become a professional player. He called it Project Dan. ?
