10,000 hours for Success




In this article the author talks about how practicing something makes a person better at it. Is that true? Can people really become great at something just by practice or does it have to do with the brain to? I believe it can and can’t be. Practicing something over and over again can make you better as long as you are practicing it the right way. Some people how ever practice things but don’t know exactly how to do it correctly in the first place. How can that make a person better? Some people just don’t have the skills to do certain things. It can come faster to some than to others.


I do believe that talent has something to do with being good. It’s not just practice. You are born with certain talents, different from everyone else. When you’re little and start sports you try different ones some you hate and others you love. The ones you love and get are the ones you stick with. When you keep playing over and over that makes you a better player and more successful than someone who starts playing years later than you. Some things you are better at than others. It’s normal; the world wouldn’t be diverse if everyone was good and bad at the same things. People do challenge themselves to get better though. If you set a higher goal for yourself to be better then what it is you can do, reaching that will make you more successful.




Research has suggested that once you have enough talent into what it is you love, the thing that distinguishes one from another is how hard you work on it. I do agree. Like I said if you get it and love the thing right away you will practice and stick with that to become better.
