Good Life Lab Experiments: Do you have 10,000 hours?
Malcolm Gladwell explains in his research that it takes 10,000 hours of practice to gain mastery over an activity. So I say… pick something and give it 10,000 hours.
That may seem like an unattainable task, especially with all your current obligations and expectations… but I disagree.
I say spend your time wisely and make something, just make one thing a priority and over a lifetime you will be able to say with confidence that you have gained mastery over something… something you can and will be an expert at!
How long is 10,000 hours anyway? 10,000 hours is only 417 days. A little over a year! If you live for another 20 years, that’s only 5% of your time over the next 20 years…. that’s equivalent to 500 hours or 20 full days. But if you practiced something for 3 hours a week, it would only take 167 weeks, roughly 3 years out of the 20 years to actually gain mastery over something you love!
That’s not to much to ask. 3 hours a week. What could you master now?
