SKILL DEVELOPMENT : Josh Kaufman's 20-Hour Rule

What : It only takes about 20 hours of focused practice to gain a decent skill level in something new.

Why : The 1st hours of learning are the toughest. When you push thru the hard part, you start enjoying the skill.

How :

  1. Pick a skill to learn: a language, instrument, coding, etc.
  2. Break it down into smaller, manageable parts.
  3. Dedicate 20 hours total to deliberate practice sessions (15 min/day = 80 days, 60 min/day = 20 days, etc.).

Tip : Stay consistent & committed. It gets easier as you go
