Deliberate Practice: How to Go from Novice to Master

Talent and IQ gaps are real and do have an impact during practice. But everyone can improve their level to a certain level through deliberate practice, and the longer the deliberate practice, the more obvious the effect will be, thereby completing the transformation from "idiot" to genius. The only impact of congenital deficiencies and IQ gaps is the starting point, but it has no absolute relationship with whether you can reach the end point.

This book is great. It tells the story that there is no talent in this world. Individuals who stand at the top of each profession achieve it through deliberate practice to build mental representations. Therefore, human potential is infinite, and you can achieve whatever kind of person you want to become through deliberate practice.

It's a bit complicated and cumbersome. It feels like simple logic has to be explained with a lot of examples. It makes people tired and can't stand it anymore. It's boring. To practice deliberately, first of all, people must have this awareness of change. Without awareness, no matter how many plans, principles and methods are used, they will be useless; Then there is the choice of difficulty. I feel that I am on the edge of the comfort zone. It is just right but a little difficult to do. Otherwise, it is too easy and is like traditional exercises over and over again, which consumes inefficient energy. It is too difficult to consume our enthusiasm and kill us in one stroke. Choose the edge of your comfort zone, go beyond the edge of your comfort zone purposefully again and again, reselect your goals and practice again with purpose; Furthermore, establish a performance evaluation mechanism, that is, feedback, make timely corrections, and create effective psychological characteristics; Finally, it is effective to properly handle the relationship between the rational brain and the perceptual brain, maintain a steady stream of internal drive, and continue to practice deliberately on the road to self-change.

I read this book when I first entered the workplace and was confused about how to improve and develop myself. I will follow the instructions in the book to explore and practice deliberately to improve myself. In the past, I thought that I was a person without talent and that I might not be able to do certain things naturally. My family members also said so. Now I believe that through constant practice in the right way, everyone has unlimited possibilities.

Book review: A guiding light leading to "outstanding figures" in the new era, a strange book that subverts the "genius theory". Summary: Meet the four conditions for deliberate practice: 1. Have specific, well-defined goals 2. Stay focused and engaged 3. Need feedback (excellent mentor) 4. Get out of your comfort zone

I collapsed in the middle of reading. Each experiment requires a long process. Better to bite the bullet and finish reading. It can be summarized as: understanding the truth ~ being determined ~ practicing with dedication ~ changing consciousness ~ improving energy ~ achieving skills. Genius doesn't happen overnight. There is no shortcut to a one-and-done solution. Improving any skill requires hard work and perseverance, provided the direction and method are correct. Push yourself out of your comfort zone, raise your standards, and enforce them strictly. "Being good at it is absolutely perfect", for example: Do one thing, know how to do it, and do it well. Be refined and perfect until you achieve perfection. Don't simply repeat, practice deliberately and get rid of this daily "reincarnation".

Focus, feedback and error correction; create mental representations through constant trials and error corrections to make yourself less mediocre and get rid of low self-esteem. The correct duration of practice is very important, delaying gratification; the reason to move forward must be stronger than the reason to stop; motivation cannot be eliminated, I want to make progress too much [smile]; knock down the coach after professional guidance; break the ice, put down your dignity, lower your posture, and step out of the comfort zone

Using objective scientific evidence to explain opinions and breaking people's inherent "innate views" with reasonable evidence will have a particularly great motivating effect on the next generation, including their own growth. Recommended for everyone to read

"Deliberate practice is for everyone who has a dream, for all those who want to control their own life, want to shape their own potential, not bow to fate, and not be reconciled to the status quo." The author provides an in-depth analysis with a scientific attitude, helping all of us understand that change only requires finding the right method and practicing deliberately. This is a book based on scientific evidence rather than using chicken soup for the soul slogans to tell everyone how to change themselves. The author has lofty intentions and rich cases. It can be said to be a book that allows lost people to find the way to success!

Consciously transform yourself and actively embrace the uncertain future.

Lpt player reading book settlement Geniuses know how to take advantage of the brain's adaptability. Practice with purpose to keep practicing and push your limits. To learn something, first pay to learn about it, then gain experience and learn from practical experience. First, get a general idea of ​​what we want to do, get some guidance from a mentor, coach, book or website, then start practicing until we reach an acceptable level, then let the skill become automatic and natural. Purposeful practice requires specific goals, focus, and then some feedback. Push yourself out of your comfort zone to practice. What should you do when you encounter a bottleneck? Do something different, not something hard. Here's a caveat: While we can always keep moving forward and improving, it's not always easy to do so. Staying focused and continuing to work hard is hard to do and often not fun. To improve your motivation, to gradually improve your goals step by step, and to get out of your comfort zone. Chapter 2 You need to practice the brain, hippocampus and other memory spaces. The Guinness World Records do not reach the limits of human beings. You can train your body unlimitedly. Go do some exercise to make your body healthier. Practicing a loose approach to writing, I might try to think of more ideas, only to stop when I can no longer think of any worth putting on paper. Chapter 4 ◆First, there is always an objective aspect to measuring performance, such as winning or losing in a chess match or one-on-one competition, or at least some semi-objective aspect, such as being judged by expert judges. ◆Second, these industries or fields are often competitive enough that practitioners have strong incentives to train and improve. ◆Third, these industries or fields are usually already established and the relevant skills have been cultivated for decades or even centuries. ◆Fourth, some practitioners in these industries or fields also serve as mentors and coaches over time. It takes a lot of time to stay focused and develop his abilities Deliberate practice has the following characteristics. ◆Skills developed through deliberate practice are skills that others have figured out how to improve and skills that already have a set of effective training methods. ◆Deliberate practice occurs outside people's comfort zones and requires students to continually try things that are just beyond their current abilities. ◆Deliberate practice involves feedback and the effort to adjust in response to that feedback. ◆Deliberate practice works toward targeted improvements in specific aspects of skills acquired in the past by focusing on those aspects, and almost always involves building or modifying skills that have been acquired in the past; over time, this incremental improvement will ultimately lead to superior performance. Think about what great people do? Having identified outstanding figures in a certain industry or field, the next step is to think about what they have done to make themselves stand out from those who have less outstanding achievements in the same industry or field. At the same time, they should also think about what training methods helped them achieve excellence. Feedback and adjustments will be made after getting the first results. What did you notice when you were there? What actions did you take? Why did you choose to take those actions? What mistakes did you make? How can this be changed? Then you need to get rid of some wrong views, the view that you need to be talented to do it. Is completely wrong. Combined with some learning methods, and then believe that you can achieve your goals by focusing on training. Deliberate practice taps into this innate adaptability of the human brain and body to create new abilities. These abilities are largely created with the help of nuanced mental representations that allow us to analyze and respond to the various situations we face much more effectively than we would otherwise. Humans, unlike any other animal, can consciously modify ourselves to improve ourselves in any way we choose.

"The brain is adaptable, and training can create skills we didn't have before (such as perfect pitch). This is a disruptive idea, because learning today becomes a way to create abilities, rather than enabling people to learn to make the most of their inherent talents. In this new world, the idea that people are born with some fixed potential has become It is no longer tenable; on the contrary, potential is like an extensible blood vessel that can be created through various things we experience in our lives. Learning is no longer a way to tap someone's potential, but a way to develop this potential. "A very practical tool book to learn many practical methods on how to train yourself to better develop your potential.

First of all, this book made me understand that I can be successful, breaking all the previous mental prejudices. Secondly, it also made me understand why many people, including myself, have not made much progress or achievements. The reason is that in the final analysis, we never know how to improve our abilities and what clear goals we have. Finally, I roughly understand that in order to successfully do something well, you must have: a clear and specific goal - devote yourself to the journey of the goal wholeheartedly - create a mental representation - have timely feedback - continue to practice deliberately and put into practice. Overall it has great guiding significance for me.

Like reading a super long paper, the conclusion is: deliberate training is far greater than talent and genes. Deliberate training can create good mental representations. Anyone can become a top master in a certain field through deliberate training. The premise is to master the methods and methods. The most important thing is to persist. Continuously maintaining deliberate training is a very arduous and ambitious task, which requires the support of external factors and the support of internal belief. The author has worked hard for such a long time and compiled the cases and conclusions to write this masterpiece. I really benefited a lot and answered the confusion I had for many years.

The concept is quite good. The stronger a person is in a certain field, the more time he spends on his professional skills. No genius can reach his current heights the first time. The first 15% of the content of this book is very valuable, but the last 85% of the examples are too detailed, such as doctors, pianists, violinists, pilots, chess masters... As mentioned in the book, content that is too professional often requires the reader to have the same skills before it is easier to read, which tests the reader's patience. It is recommended to only look at the first 15% to maximize returns. To condense it into: focus + error correction + feedback → establish mental representation. Similar to the consciousness you develop when playing games, for those who have not developed mental representation, the king player can only see the red dot moving on the mini-map, but for those who have mental representation, as soon as the opposite jungler shows up, you will know what he wants to do and quickly make a counter-reaction. If you want to develop mental representations, you must spend a lot of time practicing, but not blindly! It's about high-quality practice! You need to repeatedly improve your weak areas and constantly try to jump outside your comfort zone. It is best to find a big boss in the industry as a coach, because their mental representation is different from yours and they can see flaws that you cannot notice at a glance. For example, you just played King of Kings and found that you couldn't beat the opponent because the equipment was too poor. Then you realized "the importance of equipment" and you have to get gold coins to upgrade equipment, so you kept wandering to catch people. When you wandered and didn't catch people, the economy got worse. Even if you caught people, the economy couldn't keep up with others, and you gained a new understanding that "war lines are valuable." And if you have a game master by your side for online guidance at this time, he can greatly accelerate your growth. He will tell you how many minions the cost of replenishing is equivalent to one head. When you throw skills, he will let you leave skills to fight residual health to improve the success rate of replenishing soldiers. He will also remind you that the hero will shake forward and backward when attacking and releasing skills. Pay attention to the movement of raising your hand, etc. After you continue to expand your new knowledge, the next step is to repeatedly improve your weak points. For example, if you don't know how to do combos, start a training camp and practice repeatedly without a CD until you know that you can perform combos like muscle memory. After improvement, you can challenge people who are stronger than you. After you lose, review what you didn't do well enough and where your opponent is better than you, and then improve. Everything you do is to develop a mental representation. The core is probably the above. In addition, I also learned some knowledge that is beneficial to life from the book: First, a nurse who has been working in the hospital for 10 years is not necessarily more professional than a nurse who has just been working for a month. The reason is that if the ability is not deliberately practiced, it will gradually decline over time, and the old nurse will not be as reliable as the newcomer who has just been trained. Second, if you want to do surgery, you have to find a doctor who has done many surgeries, because each of his surgeries is a deliberate practice. After more than 1,500 surgeries, the ability growth curve is not so obvious further up.

There is no such thing as genius. It takes more or less deliberate practice to form the illusion of genius. We can acquire any skill we want through deliberate practice. The effectiveness depends on how we practice and how strong our motivation is. The best way to learn swimming is by swimming. Let us all practice actively.

[Smile][smile][smile][smile][smile] The author of this book, Anders Erikson, is an outstanding psychologist. Through years of research and practice, he has put forward the theory and method of deliberate practice, allowing us to see the possibility of becoming a master. The language of this book is concise and clear, and the cases are vivid and interesting, making it easy and enjoyable to read. The author uses a large number of examples to tell us that deliberate practice is the key to improving skills, not talent or IQ. He also introduced specific methods and steps for deliberate practice so that we can apply these methods in practice and improve our skill levels. What impressed me most in the book was the "10,000 hours rule" proposed by the author, which means that to become an expert in a certain field, you need 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. This law reminds me of some of my own experiences. Sometimes we always feel that we are not good enough or outstanding enough, but we never think about whether we have put in enough effort and time. If we can continue to practice deliberately, constantly challenge ourselves, and surpass ourselves as mentioned in the book, then we may also become experts in a certain field. Overall, "Deliberate Practice" is a very practical book. It allowed me to see my potential and possibilities, and also taught me many methods and techniques to improve my skills. If you want to improve your skills and become an expert in a certain field, this book is definitely worth reading.

Last time I gave a low score and didn't show it, so I guess giving a high score will make it visible. First, before reading this book, I recommend reading "Cognitive Awakening" to understand more about brain science and to give an interpretation of this book. Second, the key points of this book are four (for me) (Clear goals) (Stretching the comfort zone/Low-level diligence is useless) (Timely feedback/Correction of errors) (Focus on the process/Concentration) Third, this book is filled with a large number of cases, but there is no way to prove whether it is true or false, and it is too repetitive and lengthy. It may be just right for novices, but for friends with a certain reading foundation, it can be read quickly. I just skipped reading. Fourth, after reading this book, I understood a truth. When reading a book, you should read it with questions and purposes. This may be "deliberate practice". For example, what is deliberate practice? How do I use deliberate practice? Will deliberate practice help my life, career, health, etc.? In the end, the book is not good or bad, but since it is a reference book, it is a methodology. Then make it concise so that people can understand/master it at a glance, so that you and I will be better off. Generally speaking, I don't recommend this book very much. I really want to learn and understand what is being said by watching a video, and it only takes an hour.

This is a great book! I always thought that as long as I kept repeating, I could achieve that high effect. I remember the first time I learned guitar. At the beginning, constant repetition did have an effect, but the further it went on, the more difficult it became. It was like there was an insurmountable gap. My fingering and rhythm were never perfect, and they were not even as good as when I first started learning. I hope I will have a new understanding after reading this book. If you, a stranger, have similar troubles, just read this book!

You can read it together with "Cognitive Nature" to understand the nature of learning Learning is important, practice is even more important. This is what the Analects of Confucius said, "Learning and practicing it from time to time, is not just a matter of practice". Practice enables theory to be put into practice and theory is tested in practice.

Now I finally understand why I was being chased (🐶Save my life)

Use objective and practical perspectives to gain more basic understanding of polishing skills. The basis of mastering knowledge lies in whether you know and apply it. The only way to test whether you have mastered it is to practice [laughing]

See, there will be pressure. Verify deliberate practice from all aspects. It feels like an argumentative essay. The one I remember most is the example of playing chess. There is also this sentence - the brain, like the body, changes most quickly to challenges in the "sweet spot" that is outside the comfort zone but not too far away.

No one is born a genius, all success comes from early practice and persistence. Deliberate practice will improve efficiency and help us grow quickly. The stage of deliberate practice must include concentration, feedback, correction, and improvement. We must establish a correct mental representation and not use luck to make excuses for our lack of effort. What I like most about this book is that it gives correct and incorrect examples and shows us the references at the end. ㊗️Everyone can start well, work hard, and achieve challenges that are impossible for you.

First of all, practice is helpful. Skilled and persistent effort is the way to transcend talent. It affirms that we can truly improve our abilities and skills through targeted hard practice. It is supported by many real cases and experiments. It also dispels the superstition that natural talent will always be invincible. Strengthened the idea of ​​continuous learning and progress.

People often think that hard work determines the lower limit and talent determines the upper limit. This book subverts most people's traditional views. It rigorously and convincingly proves through various experimental arguments that hard work is the key factor in reaching the top. Talent will only affect the early speed of progress but not the final height. This kind of effort does not use time to exchange results like the 10,000-hour rule, but emphasizes effective efforts with goals, methods, feedback and as much focus as possible. But the examples in the book are too complicated, making it a bit boring to read.

This book is really good! For me as a new mother, not only can I learn how to practice correctly to improve myself, but it also gives me more confidence to pursue my dreams. The "correct practice" mentioned in the book requires a good instructor, goals, and feedback. It reminds me of the book "Alien", which also talks about how to become a master through hard work and correct methods. I especially like the cases in the book about various skill exercises, which are very inspiring. I think this book is not only suitable for adults, but also for children. As long as they master the correct methods, everyone can realize their dreams. Highly recommended!

It has depth and ideas. Although it is research-based, it also adds more methods to life.

I have read this book many times and it has been particularly beneficial. I highly recommend it to friends from all walks of life who want to improve and make progress. You must read it again and again to realize that this is a super good book.

A very good book, I have read it many times It's really useful for me now as a senior in high school!
