10,000 hours

Feb 02, 2009 15:55

Malcolm Gladwell's book "Outliers" is the latest to reepeat to me the
idea that to truly master something, you need to practice for 10,000
hours. You may be competent quickly, but not yet a master. And people
we think of as prodigies are merely people who got their 10,000 in
before anyone else.

Do any of you have 10,000 hours in anything?

Is it the right thing?
