Daniel, thanks for all the hard work that went into The Talent Code. I know this took time away from your family, so it was quite a sacrifice. I'm getting a lot out of it. I found the book on and end cap at Barnes & Noble. I purchased it and read completely through it in a week. I'm currently considering how one might apply deep practice to new entrepreneurs as they create firms.
Oh, the ultimate "Nurture vs Nature" debate... And that is why Bob Dylan is so wildly successful today... No singing voice, but he can write a song... And also Roy Orbison, he could not compose a great song, but he had a voice... Yet, Bob won the Nobel prize, and Roy never did... Nature vs Nurture... Some are born with it, some has to work to train themselves, but Nature will always win over Nurture... Usain Bolt, Wayde van Niekerk RAW FUCKING TALENT, enhanced by coaches. I, for 1, was an 800m athlete. I didn't have the natural talents and skills to beat my opponents, I beat them with sheer will of determination. And yet, I could only boast to be in the Top 100 of my country, South Africa. Because my time of 1:49 was not great enough to compete against the raw talent
I read this book with great interest, and it's excellent. My kids recite to me "Work hard, and be nice," and "Practice, practice, practice" to me often.
Similar numbers for acquisition rates - up to two thousand percent increases are noted by Andrew Huberman when reporting a few colleagues' research on short rests between physical repetitions of a movement skill, where the brain gets through extra 'virtual' repetitions - though at around twenty times the speed of the original, physically executed repetitions that preceded the short break.
I'm only on page 34,but the photo on p, 31 made me think that maybe the brain produces the myelin sheathing the same way an oyster creates a pearl. Somehow the nerve impulses irritate the surrounding tissue and , etc. etc.
i got the audiobook copy. i could never thank you more for working on and making this book. previous to having your book, i was trying to be good at something to no avail. i just memorize and hardly remember them when i needed to apply them. this book has given me direction on how to approach my learning with better results. everyone should have a copy..(,")
Well, what people like him call ''secret'' others people call Basics /watch?v=NITNKzWYOqc&playnext_from=TL&videos=HmPdOPZGJVU Call basics as ''secret'' seems the old bias ''just look the survivors''
I just got the audiobook....I'm a golfer and have struggled with the game because I want to swing like the pros on TV...now it's making sense why I can't do that yet....and as a musician I should know that you can't play a piece at full speed without learning it slow first
This was one of the more fascinating books I have read in my lifetime. If you are interested in skill acquisition you need to review the concepts in this book and put them into practice.
