PracticeI read that someone did a survey and no matter if it were art, sport or anything else, it took about ten thousand hours to become world class at something.I also read that most people grossly over estimate what they can get done in a day and grossly under estimate what they can get done in ten years.If you put 2 hours and 45 minutes a day into something, in ten years you would have invested 10,000 hours into it and you could be world class at it.At what would you like to be at a world class standard?The world's foremost cellist, Pablo Casals, at 83 was asked why he continued to practice four and five hours a day. Casals answered, "Because I think I am making progress."I just love that response!
