How is a master made?
The answer is very clear, there is no second way, it is four words, deliberate practice.
That is, deliberate + practice, let's talk about it one by one.
Deliberately, it's about continuing to do things you won't do
The world of psychology divides human learning into three areas. The first zone is called the comfort zone, which is very comfortable to stay here, because you know all here, you are all good at it, and you are good at it; And the farthest place is called the panic zone, where you don't know everything.
in the comfort zone andPanic ZoneThere is a district in betweenIt's called learningarea, soOne talked aboutLearn, justIt's called getting out of your comfort zone.
You see, that's the nature of learning, never being comfortable,BecauseYou're doing something you wouldn't do.
When you enter a good learning environment and passively get out of your comfort zone, you enter the learning zone.
Then we have to redefine what a good learning environment is
It is definitely not a classroom with a clean window, a library with a large number of free learning materials, and a good learning environment is one that provides immediate feedback.
Establish an environmental field for immediate feedback
Yes, instant feedback means that for every small improvement you make, the external environment will give you a feedback that tells you whether you are right or wrong, whether you have enough or you have to keep practicing.
What about practice, it's about non-stop practice, don't you think it's nonsense? 10,000 hours of practice?
No, the basis of practice is the basic skills, what is the essence of the basic skills? It's not a beginner, it's a routine.
The word routine is now stigmatized. Doesn't everyone think that a routine is a deception? No. We first need to understand how human knowledge is constructed.
There's a term called "tech black box".
In modern society, we are faced with a large number of technology black boxes, everyone only needs to be in the division of labor, we use mobile phones, we don't have to know how it is made, we publish an article, we don't need to know how the platform is released to your readers, you just need to focus on the content.
In fact, this is the essence of human civilization, and all knowledge systems are structured in this way, that is, we encapsulate the experience of our predecessors in a small concept, and then use it for later generations, without thinking on the spot.
Learn the routines of the industry from the masters
From the very beginning of human civilization to today's complex knowledge, it is actually this thing, called knowledge cans.
Abstract something that has been figured out by our predecessors into something very concise, and then we can use it. What is it called? This is called a routine.
The most important routine is that you can't find it in textbooks, and that is the most valuable experience summed up by the predecessors in this industry.
So it's not important that you do the most ordinary exercises, the key is to learn these things from your peers.
For example, if you want to become a guitarist, you have to go back to the most detailed, boring, boring fingering training, called climbing the lattice. If you want to become a pianist, then you may have to go back to the most specific fingering training throughout your life, such as Hanon fingering training.
The same goes for violin, there is a **academy in the United States that requires that a piece of music should be broken down into very small pieces and practiced little by little; Even put forward a very extreme opinion, if the person listening to you can hear which piece you are playing, sorry, your training method has been wrong.
We use this set of ideas to look at the masters of various industries, in fact, they are all like this.
The main basic training of lawyers is to read a large number of cases; A lot of basic training for a Go player is not to play Go with others on the Internet and have a good time, but to memorize the formulas one by one, play ancient scores one by one, and so on. It's all like that.
The road to success for top masters is to learn the routines of others and dismantle the entire "building" into "bricks" one by one for training, so that the accuracy is higher.
Of course, it is not enough to have routines, and the most important thing is to repeat.
The brain is powered by changing its own hardware, and it is not a purely software problem.
So what to do? You have to do a lot of repetition. Repeating the practice in a targeted manner is the essence of deliberate practice.
The only way to become a master
Aside from those genius brains, in fact, there is no shortcut to becoming a master, you can only insist on deliberate practice.
Master the underlying concepts and routines of all walks of life, repeat the practice, and practice for a long time, and you will become a teacher.
