Product Details
Notes
read in Sydney on the Kindle
10,000 hours to become an expert
arbitrary age cutoff dates lead to skewed results
older kids look like stronger athletes, get better training
your background and circumstances contribute a lot to success
Bill Gates had opportunities that led him to computers
he took advantage of the opportunities
but he had things that most kids don't have
even being born in a certain time period helps
because you can catch the beginning of a big trend
it's not that you can't be successful without these things
but to really become an extreme outlier
it's a combination of your skills plus the outside opportunities |
