Do We Need The 10,000 Hour Rule? How To Learn Fast!

In today’s solo episode I’ll talk about learning skills fast.

How can we learn a skill in the most efficient way possible?

Steps To Learn A Skill

Now what if we wanted to elaborate on that framework to give you a step by step guide to learn something efficiently? 
In later episodes I can quote and share some specific learning frameworks from creators like Carol Dweck and Tim Ferris, but today I’ll mention a checklist of things we should have to learn anything fast.

• Define your target performance level. Decide what you want? Clearly define what it is you want to aim to do? 
• Deconstruct the skill into its component parts. Break it down into manageable chunks to learn.
• Prioritize the most important sub-skills for you first. Apply Pareto’s Principle to your learning efforts.
• Don’t procrastinate. Try the actual skill in its truest possible form right away so you have the ability to anchor your learning.
• Research. Learn from teachers in books, courses, coaches and content how to learn the sub skills.
• Dedicate time in your schedule to focused, frictionless practice.
• Seek feedback as soon as possible from people who understand what it’s like to learn the skill.
• Commit to a minimum of forty dedicated hours in trying the skill.
• Create an environment of accountability by adding rewards, and or consequences for your effort.
