Genius are made!
Adriana’s daily Quotes:
I have just presented my fourth book at the International Fair with big success. I am very grateful!
Looking at the authors who are successful and those who are not, I remember the study of Ericsson
that revealed an amazing fact:
» It was determined that there is a common factor in all people who excel in an area: More than their innate talent, it is the opportunity and hard work that leads to success.»
It has been determined that approximately 10,000 hours of practice are required to become a world-class expert. It seems that the human brain requires that many hours to achieve complete mastery of any discipline.
There is also the 10 year rule. Studies conducted by Benjamin Bloom at the University of Chicago have shown that at least a decade of focused effort is required before world renown is achieved in any specialty area.
Outstanding Olympic swimmers train for an average of 15 years before being able to make the Olympic team. In the same way, the best professional pianists invest 15 years of practice before they achieve world fame.
I work, practice and study everyday for many years. So I know for a fact that:
Geniuses are made, not born.
Ericsson, Professor of Psychology at the University of Florida, comments: «It’s hard to explain how genius comes to be and why its manifestation is so rare, but it’s not magic, and it’s not innate talent . It manifests itself when critical factors come together that allow an intelligent person to invest sustained and focused effort to achieve mastery in an area of expertise.»
