How to Deliberate Practice | Routines and Examples

Deliberate practice is the reason why professionals progress, while amateurs stay stuck. When they talk about the 10000 hour rule they mean ten thousand hours of deliberate practice. Deliberate or purposeful practice means that you stay just outside your current ability to increase your ability. When you stay in this spot your skill will grow. In the video I will go into some tactics to build a deliberate practice routine and some examples.

What are the exact protocols for each of the models the music that shaz and a sports model

[@hlogilehlogonolo5438]

So if a kid did deliberate practice for his whole life and spent 10,000 hours on that field and his only 16 and I start later is gonna be impossible to surpass him at that field????

[@michaels-meditations]

@@hlogilehlogonolo5438 Most fields require more than mere skill. But if it's chess or basketball for example than probably yes you won't get better. If it's film making or marketing than it's a different story because there are more factors at play than just skill.

[@hlogilehlogonolo5438]

Disillusionment , oh ok so in sports like let’s say football (soccer) you won’t be able to get better than that person. If only we got taught this at a young age and ppl could just tell practice makes perfect and it’s not just talent. Great video Btw

[@mizanoors4235]

Can you explain what you meant by process orientated goals please?

Excellent breakdown/presentation - thanks for putting it together!

[@kameijohnbosco1378]

Nice to watch 👀 about deliberated practice messages about progress in human life struggle

[@IDMYM8]

The most powerful phrase to maintain deliberate practice is, what I say to myself, "Be at the edge of your ability". You have to give your very best at every attempt, and that's key ingredient. The moment you start slipping, you start throwing. You must always be at your hundo💯 and then start fixing what you consider mistake/best. Find what's your best thing is at a certain thing.

[@lauralong3091]

amazing. this is the first video i chose to watch on deliberate practice and I am so stoked to dive into this!!! thank you for the fun infographic and explanation. very well done!

[@michaels-meditations]

Thanks! I used it for my animations and have a job in it right now so it worked for me. Just keep it up for a substantial amount of time that was the hardest part for me!

[@hlogilehlogonolo5438]

I have a question, if someone does deliberate practice and spent 10,000 hours on that field and continues to do so and u start today is it impossible for him to get better than the kid who already spent 10,000 hours????pls answer I’m so curious

[@mambamentality1056]

@@hlogilehlogonolo5438 no u just gotta put in more work

[@DamienNightmarish]

Always practice doing your best. The only way to advance is outperforming every little step. Do this repeatedly and you will get better.

[@muilm1087]

Do you mean by doing more than you did before like you do 200 pushup the next day you push yourself and do 250 to outperform what you did before does that mean you have advanced and improved

Just grabbed a litre of Bushmills Whisky there. Time for some deliberate practice!

[@FocusMrbjarke]

Awesome choice of topic :) and awesome video :)

[@michaels-meditations]

Thanks brother! Yhea a really important one but not a lot of people talk about it.

[@FocusMrbjarke]

Michaels Meditations agree I am really interested in the research on expertise. It's sad it haven't replaced talent and iq yet which most people seem to talk about related to expertise.

[@michaels-meditations]

Yhea true, the books in the description are great reads regarding this topic. One talks about how IQ can help you when you just start out, but after a month there is no relationship anymore between performance and IQ. It's sad that people still think talent is a thing. I believe it helps people in a sense, they can blame talent so they have a excuse for inaction. Thanks for the reply's! love to hear peoples opinions on my topics.

[@FocusMrbjarke]

Michaels Meditations agree. I am looking forward to see more of your videos. Will you do more videos on the research on expertise? That would be really awesome :)

[@michaels-meditations]

I don't know yet, I might go deeper on the actual implementation and techniques that can be used to create feedback loops and the importance of coaches.

[@babatunde6936]

Yo bro great video. However I don’t know what you mean about domain knowledge and how to apply it to football. Can you explain it to me or link a video or something thanks!

[@michaels-meditations]

Hey Alim, every skill is different in each aspect. For almost every sport domain knowledge is mostly gained in practicing techniques. Try to figure out what type of skills you need, for people that attack it is shooting, so try and get as many techniques on how to shoot at a goal. For defensive players it's getting the ball and preventing a goal so figure out how you can train that. In sports I highly recommend a good trainer, it's just such a help and you can just trust his domain knowledge. Also look at other players analyse them, learn all the rules of the game in-depth. Lastly for football look at Futsal, it's a variation on football that can help you practice the skill very fast. It uses a smaller field and a heavier ball. The small field creates way more learning experiences in less time because you are confronted by the player more times. The heavier ball inhances control over the ball. This game is the main reason why Brasil is so damn good at football, the youth play a lot of Futsal. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futsal

[@babatunde6936]

Michaels Meditations yes yes I know what you mean by domain knowledge now because I’m a winger I should learn dribbling a lot . But how would I break down the skill if it’s a part of the drill I follow a drill so I tells me what to do so how would I break that down?

[@babatunde6936]

Btw it may be worth noting that the drill is split into three different parts

[@ibarix]

Dribling. Let's break it down. For it you need the speed, stamina and feel for the ball. Let' break it down more. Train speed with progressively longer sprints. Train stamina by long distance jogging or swimming. Train feel for the ball by every day juggling. Let' break it down even more. Time to train sprinting with the ball now. For stamina you need to start taking into account the recovery, how much you sleep, how you eat, are you overtraining? For the feel for the ball start training ball receiving low, mid and high passes, receiving with both legs and chest, then graduate to receiving the ball while sprinting, on both sides of the pitch. After these fundamentals you are ready for the advanced stuff - crossing, cutting inside and shooting, reading the opponent player/s. You can really go into so much detail it's incredible - crossing curled, sliced, with either leg from either side, low post or high post, targeeting area between the penalty and the keeper box, air ball or ground ball, run at defenders' backs, shooting with power or placing shots, tricks and start/stop moves to create separation for a cross or a run, positioning out wide, maybe find a model player and study the videos to learn how and when he positions himself in the match. I hope this was helpful. And I didn't even mention defending duties. :) Good luck.

[@hlogilehlogonolo5438]

Also remember the most important thing to know abt dribbling in football is your leg muscles don’t over do your upper body bcuz most of the time if u shield the ball properly u realize u use more leg strength than upper body, also when changing direction u need to be quick and that only comes from strong legs trust me on this leg muscles are so important in football but also don’t neglect your upper body tho

[@Evilanious]

I deliberate practicing regularly. But then I don't actually do it.

[@michaels-meditations]

thanks

[@pinny492]

actually, it is conclusively proven that your genes affect strongly your ability to aquire skills. So why dont he say that in the video.....

[@michaels-meditations]

Only in the initial phase of learning, it flattens out the longer you practice a skill and eventually it closes the gap. Except for pure physical traits ofcourse. Otherwise link a scientific journal I'll like to read it :)

[@pinny492]

@@michaels-meditations Nope, the gap never closes. Some people just learn in like 10% of the time of others. The studies showed this.

[@skaffen]

@@michaels-meditations Well, let's take top 1 chess player, Magnus Carlsen. He remembers thousands of games. Basically no one can do that even spending a lifetime training, and training just for this, not even to be good at chess. He clearly has a brain that fits well with chess. It's a great exception, but it happens. At 5 years old, he already had an incredible memory.

Deliberate practice is a tough mental work. Only 3% people of world do deliberate practice.
