18:20 “And by playing that song for you, I have now reached my 20th hour practicing the ukelele!” This is a beautifully illustrated point

[@sanyamsood8613]

1. Deconstruct the skill. Decide what you exactly want to do with skill and break the skill, practice the most important skills. 2. Learn enough to correct yourself. Practice just enough to notice when you do mistakes and get on the right path. 3. Remove the distractions. Disable notifications and remove all the distractions. 4. Practice at least 20 hours. Try to do 20 hours of deliberate practice. Stick with it no matter what. Additional:- The major barrier to skill acquisition isn't an intellectual one, but it's emotional.

Thanks to you sir. I come back to write this 3 months (- +) after i watched this video. When i was learning english, i've tried to memorize all the words and vocab as much as possible, but after months i still can't speak or even give a comment in youtube or instagram post in english. After watched this video i realize, i don't need all the words in oxford dictionary to start speaking, like that ukelele chords, know some important words is enough for you to speak in foreign language, and that's what i do now.

congratulations! I'm a native speaker of Chinese and English is my second language. I have a hard time in learning it due to the tradition way of teaching in my school. how I wish all my teacher watch Ted (there is no Ted back then). I found another good way to learn English let me share with u. don't try to remember words as it is very discouraged. instead try read the books /newspaper that is your level. your level means in one page there is no more than 10 unknown words to u. and dun hurry to search the meaning of every single words u duno. just guess the meaning and move on. if u feel happy just look up for 1 - 2 words u find interesting. that's my way of learning. just sharing 😊👍

@@danielliew2192 I am a 17 y.o girl. I just watched this Video because I got struggle in learning chinese, I really liked to learn chinese but, I found it hard to study and understand the 8000+ words, in Chinese there are so many kind of tones of words that we used to speak in dialogue and I was like I'm getting tired, and close to giving up. But I don't think I can quit because I really want to be a native speaker in Chinese XD and I'm here asking you for some tricks to learn Chinese XD

**THE FIRST 20 HOURS - HOW TO LEARN ANYTHING** 1. Deconstruct the skill: - decide exactly what you want to be able to do when you're done, and then look into the skill and break it down into smaller pieces. 2. Learn enough to self correct: - learn just enough that you can actually practice and self correct or self edit as you practice. 3. Remove barriers to practice: - remove the distractions that are keeping you from practicing. 4. Practice for at least 20 hours: - by pre-committing to practicing whatever it is that you want to do for at least 20 hours, you will be able to overcome initial frustration barrier and stick with the practice long enough to actually reap the rewards. 5. The major barrier's not intellectual, it's emotional.

[@QuickTalks]

Summary: Just 20 hours is enough to become “reasonably good” at any skill. 1. Deconstruct the skill - Break the skill down into its most basic parts. Which parts are necessary for hitting the goal you have? (i.e. if your goal is to sing a song in Korean, you can primarily focus on pronunciation, not learning a bunch of vocabulary) 2. Learn enough to self correct - Learn enough to realize when you're making mistakes. 3. Remove barriers to practice - Turn off your phone, unplug the TV. Put your guitar, piano, language book in the middle of your room, not behind your stack of dirty laundry. 4. Practice for at least 20 hours - Commit to 20 hours from the start. You're going to be frustrated at times, so committing beforehand will help you push through the frustration.

I was always better than my classmates in speaking english, but I wasn't well enough to able to speak properly or understand completely. Then one day one thought came up and I've decided to be as better as I can in speaking english. Now, I've been practicing english for almost 1 year. At least 20 minutes a day. That's 20 minutes made me way better english speaker than I was before. When I saw this video I wanted to share my experience. Guys, I watched this video without any subtitle and understood every single words thanks to my 20 minutes efforts a day. I achieved this level without any partner or course. Although I'm still not that good enough and you can find lots of errors I've made in my comment, I know that I'm gonna be better day by day and eventually achieve my goal. Whatever you wanna learn, just believe in yourself and practice at least 20 minutes a day. Good luck.

I spent several hours trying to learn Russian... In that 2 or 3 hours, I learned to read Russian and a few greetings. I can now read Russian, but not understand everything and put together sentences and my dictionary is very small. On that first 2 hours, I learned about as much Russian as I did Greek on my first day of Greek school. The difference with learning Greek is that my family speaks Greek. When I started learning German in school, I spent about 45 minutes a day learning German with other people. With Russian, I don't know many people who speak Russian. ( I know 2...not that I have much contact with them). If I can do it, chances are so can most people. You just gotta have the motivation. I started learning German because I took an interest in World War II. After becoming fairly competent in German, I decided to learn Russian. You just gotta have the drive. JUST DO IT! DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS!

[@caldwell477]

George Bizos Agreed because somebody could spend 10,000 hours studying but text every 5mins also its how you learn the subject. My mom is a graduate from Harvard and her biggest lesson to me was willpower can overcome lack of talent and lack of intelligence. Its crazy because we all have 24hours in a day its how you spend those hours.

A lot of comments here are disappointing to read. The man shared with us a golden rule to learn and become decent at a new skill. He even specified you won't become an expert, you will become decent. That's the whole point of the video. He wanted to break the misconception of the 10,000 hour rule and encourage people to learn a subject they have been wanted to address and that it is not impossible, it takes 20 hours and you will have learned the basics and that it is do-able even if your schedule is tight.

I would quickly get bored and after a couple of weeks quit. But that's the thing the books I was using were designed to teach business men , they focus on grammar because it's an easy subject to grade on tests. But I don't care about any of that. What I need is the most important elements, that will make it easy for me to understand general Japanese . I'm still going to use those books but I'm not going to make them the central focus of my learning.

That was the start for me and within a month I could speak the language much better than I thought: it was just like the Pareto rule because I chose the 20% that mattered most to keep a basic conversation.

I've been using a variation of this technique for 30 years to teach newbies programming. I call it the building block approach. Essentially teach a small aspect of the programming language at a time, get the "student" to use it over and over while being productive for their team. When each building block is mastered move to the next one. In a relative short period of time the student becomes an independent and productive programmer. So, instead of a steep learning curve, there are many short learning curves. Each building block aligns with Kaufman's 20 hours of practice. Thank you Josh!

10,000 hours to master a new skill - watch it ! 20 hours to be reasonably good at something - IF you apply 4 steps : 1. Deconstruct skill - start with the most important parts first 2. Learn enough to self-correct 3. Remove practice barriers/distractions - TV, internet 4. Practice minimum 20 hours - the barrier here is the frustration that comes from the lack of knowledge : we suck and we know it. Doing 20h might seem short, but intense focus is actually hard to maintain, because of emotional junk. The major barrier to skill acquisition is not intellectual - it’s emotional.

Thanks for this impressive lection. I improved in skill acquisition tremendously. Here the list of 4 steps of rapid skill acquisition which are provided by Josh Kaufman: 1. Deconstruct the skill. (Break the skill into the smallest pieces possible so you`ll undestand your milestones in progressing skill and, what matters the most, task of acquiring the skill becomes tangible.) 2. Learn enough to self-correct. (Get 3-5 resources about what it is you`re trying to learn. But don`t use those as a way to procrastinate on practice. Get better at noticing when you`re making a mistake.) 3.Remove practice barriers. (Use at least a bit of willpower to remove distractions that are keeping you from practice.) 4.

Gladwell: "It takes 10,000 hours to attain world class mastery in a given field." Groundlings: "ZOMG it takes 10k hours just to learn this one thing!"

i've been an artist for years now, and although i'd consider myself an amateur in terms of technical skill, i will give you some advice that helped me the most. don't lure yourself into believing the technical skills are all that make an artist great, they certainly help with creating works but that's where it ends. there's no "proper way" to start learning, don't follow guides or instructions on how to draw, they are great to learn about new techniques but that's where it ends. just draw, paint, sculpt or whatever you want to do, in whatever order you wish! the most important aspect of artistry is actually enjoying the creative process, because if you don't enjoy what you create, then it's very easy to lose interest in art. never be afraid to make mistakes, and then erase them (in some cases the entire work itself). never feel like you are forced to do a work you don't wish to, or lack the energy/passion to complete. and probably one of the more important things, is to create art for YOURSELF! don't be put down by others judgements on your works, they are for you first, your expression and your message! (even if someone is positive to your work, you will find often almost everyone will say the same positive thing "oh that looks nice/good" they often mean well, but lack the words or artistic knowledge to express such, it will get tiring very fast). and don't fall into the trap of creating art for others, it can be fun, but having to follow another person vision gets tiresome after a short while.

Totally true, learning process requires motivation in order to be efective.

[@krane15]

No, its not. The major barrier in leaning anything is finding someone that can put it in term simple enough to understand. Ninety nine percent of those books are written so badly that you leave as clueless as when you came in.Thing is, you've got to read through all of them before you can find the one that makes what you want to learn make sense. Only a very small group of people know how to do this. And even smaller group knows how to make learning interesting.

[@AaronAtkinson]

@@krane15 I agree with this, but perhaps the fact that you are reading those books, and that you're a part of that small group that knows how to make learning interesting, means that you have already passed the emotional barrier. Most people don't have the interest or motivation to seek out that knowledge in the first place. I don't think you're wrong, I think you're awesome. But maybe you've been awesome for so long that you've forgotten the challenges that prevent non-awesome people from being awesome?

[@krane15]

@@AaronAtkinson When you said motivation you struck a never. In my entire time in HS I don't recall a single teacher that went above and beyond to teach. They did the minimum to meet their requirements, but no more, and no less. Well, maybe sometimes less. In any event, if the student got it, fine. If they didn't, it was their tough luck. In college, I had a total of two professors that went above and beyond the call of duty to help me and other student to pas tests and succeed. What I mean is they did things like coming in on their days off to give students individual tutelage on parts they found difficult, and helping the surmount other administrative challenges that would get in the way of their studies. I guess I would categorize that on removing all distractions. But that's easier said than done. Some distractions are under your control, others are not. Eliminating all distractions takes time and can be draining. Anyway, I know this isn't exactly on topic, but your post reminded me, and it is closely related nonetheless. They say you can learn anything on youtube. Thing is. you have to watch 10 hours of useless videos to get to that one that put things in terms that you can understand. Can you then say you learned how to grow radishes in 1 hour? What becomes of that 10 hours of video where you learned next to nothing? Nevertheless, I appreciate the compliment, but I wouldn't call myself awesome. Rather, I say I was aware -- of some of the difficulties in learning a new skills, and so can often recognize and focus on getting around those difficulties. When the author claims 20 hours it takes for granted that all the time is productive, and ignores the time it takes to get through all the useless material to get to that actual leaning point. A structured learning environment removes much of that effort, but not necessarily all of it. Of course the true definition of learning has always bothered me as well. Is memorizing learning? If you don't understand what the nomenclature or what the jargon means, knowing the definition won't help you much. On the other hand, you can always memorize a passage and get it right, but that doesn't mean you understand it. If an instructor puts it in the right words you can learn something new instantly. When they don't, or can't, they can repeat it a million times and it still won't resonate or have any real meaning. I offer my most challenging example: A linear equation is an equation in the form y = mx + b. Maybe its ridiculously clear to some folks (a left brain/right brain thing?), but it wasn't to me. At least, not at the time. Cliffs: 1) Part of learning is teaching, and teachers can be good or really, really bad. 2) Only a small percentage of teachers go beyond the minimum required to teach. 3) Total study time is not always relate to total learning time. 4) Comfortable learning environments vary, and can sometimes be difficult to achieve. 5) Memorizing material may not be considered the same as learning it.

[@sumair.shahid]

4 simple steps to “Rapid Skill acquisition” are: 1- Deconstruct the skill and decide exactly what you would be able to do by breaking down the skill into smaller pieces 2- Learn enough to self correct (Learn enough part of the skill which you can practice and self correct) 3- Remove practice barriers (distractions) by utilising a little will power 4- Practice at least 20 hours

[@ReinventingRogerOsorio]

Loved this talk! Imagine as teachers, we can design our course instruction to follow this exact process. That is, we can deconstruct the skills, identify the most critical/fundamental sub skills, decide what the right mix of resources are, teach them how to self-correct, create the barrier-less conditions, and structure the 20 hour plan for that skill. Perhaps in math, chapter 3 is the big skill and the sections are the sub-skills. Hmmm...I am going to play around with this.

You need to live with the music. Don't put your guitar in the case under the bed. Put it in the bed, take it into the bathroom with you.

Who knows you might get laid. (worked for me) If you swerve into someone that will hang with you when you are a bad player, the future could be bright. Also pick some tunes that you like or someone you like wants to hear and have some fun. Good luck and good picking. P.S. Don't know what your playing, however, I suggest you follow the advice of BB King and Billy Gibbons and use lighter strings.

What an inspirational guy, I wished I had heard this about four years back. My wife bought me a cheap Uke for a laugh, and within a short period of time I could bang out the blues, and a couple of songs I always wanted to play, and sing. His theory holds up pretty well, as I just wanted to play a musical instrument, and found this was the easiest way to do so.

I had same problem when until turned 21, that's when you ll start getting tired af at the end of the day...how it was for me

[@rafaemuradyan2640]

The effective way of doing that is setting aside time for studying each day, just like you do for eating and sleeping. Maintain a consistent schedule from day to day. The length of time required for study will vary depending on the individual's knowledge of the subject.Your focus will increase if you make it a habit to study in the same spot at the same time every day.

Absolutely brilliant. Everything said was spot on. Anyone can start to achieve any goal with just a little practice and motivation and leaving the fear behind. Use fear as a focus to achieve your goal, not to prevent it.

[@EmmanuelSimond]

use fear as a focus to achieve...!!! how's that even possible???

[@jesusmadrid9816]

You're so right! Once I started using my fear for motivation things started to go in the right path.

[@pysoduck1425]

Love this so helpful thanks. self edit really helps as it puts the onus on action, which I've been overlooking in favour of achieving more theory, which is a bit of a cop out.

That’s wonderful!!! Let’s to it!!! Learn English from B1 Level to C1 Level from 01/2024 to 12/2024

[@remylebae3395]

TL;DW it takes 20 hours to learn any new skill at a non-mastery level. Deconstruct the skill into smaller, achievable skills. Learn how to correct yourself. Remove distractions. Work for 20 hours.
