The Secret To Getting Ridiculously Good

↘︎ Aug 6, 2010 … 1′⇠ | skip ⇢

Want to know the secret behind MJ’s skills? Clapton’s “slowhand”? Picaso’s brush?

If you think any of those individuals was born with a gift…you’re dead wrong.

Experts say that it takes 10,000 hours of dedicated practice until you can acquire mastery in one area of your life.

You can bet your ass those guys put in that much time (and then some).

10,000 hours equals nearly full 417 days… I think you better get started.
