How long does it take to succeed - at least 10,000 hours. Xu Junjie watched an interview show about a celebrity that day, it seemed to be someone like Lin JJ. I can’t remember exactly who it was, but it doesn’t matter. What matters is that I remember what he said, which means: If you want to succeed in a certain field, you need to be willing to invest ten years in this field. Or ten thousand hours. Although this statement is not his invention, he is definitely qualified to say this because he has put in 10,000 hours and achieved success. Ten years sounds a bit far away, and ten thousand hours is more acceptable. In fact, this concept is the same when it comes to paying attention to spare time. The average person's spare time that can be used to focus on a certain research is only 3 hours a day, which is almost 10,000 hours in ten years. In fact, the words are not new. The famous line "Ten years to sharpen a sword" in Tang Jia Dao's poem "The Swordsman" has long been known to women and children. There is also the saying that if you sit on the bench for ten years, if you don't write a sentence, it will be empty, as far as numerous students are concerned. There is also the theory of the cold window of ten years. Now some people have raised it to a theoretical level and called it the 10,000-hour criterion, so the old tune has been repeated again. Malcolm Gravel, a writer for "The New Yorker" magazine, has recently published a new book, "The Extraordinary." In the book, he believes that a person's innate talents and certain knowledge are important, but genius is not the only or most important thing. What is really useful is ordinary practical experience. For example, he said that the reason why Bill Gates was successful was mainly because he was lucky enough to go to a school that gave him a lot of time to practice computer programming. Before he started his own company, he had already spent a lot of time on computer programming. More than 10,000 hours. He also cited many examples of successful people, and I can also cite many, but the examples are just to prove this point. In fact, this point is so popular that it does not need to be proved, and the examples become redundant. There are some related issues that need to be mentioned: People will naturally think of Edison's famous saying that genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration, but don't forget that there is actually a but after Edison's original words. One percent of inspiration is actually the most important, and its importance is even more important than ninety-nine percent of sweat. Many times, it is not difficult to work hard, the difficult thing is where to put the effort. When you have no direction, you will never be able to start this decade. Once you have a direction, success is only a matter of time.
