The First 20 Hours
Author: Josh Kaufman
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101623047
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.

Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
We were born from love. We can't live without love. To love and to be loved is all we're really here to do. Soulful Truth Telling is for every woman (and a few brave men) who has struggled to create and sustain the deep, soulful and lasting love she desires. Over time, we've come to believe some lies about love that are the very things keeping us from the love we desire. This is the stuff that nobody tells you about finding love. It's about disbelieving the lies we've learned about love and allowing a deeper truth to rise to the surface. It's about using our past experiences in love to help light the path towards our true desires. Truth is the single most important factor to creating the love we desire. Without the truth, we believe that our own stories about what has happened to us, rather than what has happened through and for us. Without the truth, there's nowhere to go and there's nothing to work with. You cannot grow fruit from a bed of lies and you cannot have a breakthrough in love based in half-truths. It is Soulful Truth Telling because disbelieving the lies and uncovering the real truth about love should feel more like wiggling a tooth loose rather than open heart surgery. Finding and creating lasting love has very little to do with what you're doing, what action you're taking and so much more to do with who you're becoming. And we never stop becoming. Soulful Truth Telling is your doorway to peace and clarity. Soulful Truth Telling is your key to healing and forgiveness. Soulful Truth Telling is your path to the love you desire and deserve.
