Why 10,000-hour Rule Is A Myth

Hi there, Frank here again. Have you read Malcolm Gladwell's book Outliers: The Story of Success? In this 2008 bestseller, Gladwell examines the factors that contribute to high levels of success. And one factor that he mentions time and time and again is the "10,000 Hour Rule". According to Gladwell, one of the main reasons for the phenomenal success of people like Bill Gates and The Beatles, was that, before they were even 21 years old, they put in over 10,000 hours practicing a specific task. Gladwell says… Intelligence is not nearly as important as most people think Talent is not nearly as important as most people think. But, the one factor that seems to be essential for high-level success across the board… is the "10,000 Hour Rule". Now, if you think I'm about to tell you that you need to spend 10,000 hours working on Aspire before you can achieve success...well, nope. Fooled ya, buckaroo. Because lots of people made tons of money working under Bill Gates...and they didn't have to put in the same 10,000 hours learning computers. Because Gates had already done it. Lots of people made tons of money following Ray Kroc's simple, step-by-step process for selling McDonald's hamburgers, but they didn't have to put in 10,000 hours learning the system. Because Kroc had already done it. And plenty of people have made lots of money with Aspire by following the step by step process. Michael Force had already done it. So, you COULD put punch the clock and put in all those dreary, dreadful, painful, failure-filled 10,000 hours on your own. Go ahead and reinvent the wheel, if ya wanna, Kimosabe. Or you could jump on a train that's already barreling down the money track. It's up to you. Here is a smarter way Frank Young frank@da4lifestyle.com P.S. Be part of our team.
