Is it really possible to become an expert in some field in 20 minutes a day?
When I first was exposed to the idea Blake Griffin Jersey , I聮ll admit I was rather skeptical. But I heard the idea from a very wise man named Earl Nightengale whom I respected, so the idea intrigued me. I was listening to his audio tapes titled 聯Lead The Field? loaned to me by a friend. Gradually the idea took root in my mind, and the more it did, the more excited I became.
So is it possible?
I聮m here to tell you it not only is possible Wholesale Detroit Pistons Jerseys , it is almost a sure thing if you pick a very small subject in which you are extremely interested.
The key is to pick a subject you LOVE, and then narrow that subject down to a small bite-size area. Then spend 20 minutes a day ?every day ?learning every detail about that subject.
The reason that most people fail is that they pick too big a subject. You聮ve got to narrow it down to a tiny sub-set, then go after it like a starving dog goes after a juicy steak.
Let me give you a personal example: I am a musician. Can I become a world-class expert in music?
Pretty doubtful, because the subject is HUGE. I would have to know music history Cheap Detroit Pistons Jerseys , composers, composition, music theory, and musical instruments of all kinds Wholesale Pistons Jerseys , all about singing, opera, jazz and a hundred other sub-areas of music.
But in the area of music there is a sub-area of piano playing. I play the piano. So can I become the world聮s expert in piano playing?
Still pretty doubtful. Piano playing is a smaller area than music, but it聮s still huge. I would need to know all the piano literature from concertos to fugues Cheap Pistons Jerseys , piano construction, pianists, piano styles, and dozens of other sub-areas.
That聮s a good deal more reasonable, and that聮s exactly the area I chose to master when I was still in my teens. I LOVED chords, so spending 20 minutes a day studying all about piano chords was like a chocolate addict spending 20 minutes in the Hershey factory. And while my goal was to spend 20 minutes a day, I was so interested in the subject that I usually spent more like 2 hours a day.
There are probably many musicians around the world that know as much as I do about chords. But that聮s OK ?what I know about piano chords has enabled me to enjoy music like I never could have dreamed before, earn a lifetime of income, participate in thousands musical events, write a series of books on chords Langston Galloway Jersey , and build a teaching studio that now reaches thousands and thousands of people all around the world via CD and DVD.
Can you do the same in your area of interest?
Of course.
Just make sure of two factors:
1. You are in LOVE with the subject;
2. Make sure the subject is small enough to master.
If you can do those two things, you are on your way to becoming a world-class expert in your field in 20 minutes a day.
