10,000 hour rule.

So I have been listening to the audio book version of a pretty popular book "Outliers", by Malcolm Gladwell. It gives quite a bit of useful and interesting stories. Gladwell can really put anything into story mode and tell it well. I'm trying to wrap my mind around the present rule that he talks about of reaching 10,000 hours of practice to achieve expertise in anything. He really does put this in a way to where you can understand even though many criticize him for "over simplifying". It gives me hope to know that others have worked so hard and for so long to achieve the excellence and success they want. In this book he gives me a sense of hope to achieving my dreams. Practice Practice Practice. :)

Joy.
