Download or read book The First 20 Hours written by Josh Kaufman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way.

Download or read book So You Want to Be a Superinvestor written by Ashray Jha and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is human nature to make simple things more complicated than they actually are. Investing is no exception. From our early days in school, we are briefly taught about the stock market, given complex formulas to take a quantitative approach, and use Greek letters to define terms in the stock market. The constant use of phrases like "smart money" by the media makes you believe you have to know everything about investing to have a chance to succeed. However, there are always two sides to every coin. So You Want to Be a Superinvestor? examines what we were taught about investing from academia and then questions this conventional thinking. Do the greatest investors like Warren Buffett and other Superinvestors also use the conventional wisdom, or do they think about investing differently? Is this nonconventional investing approach accessible to all or only ultrawealthy millionaires? In this easy-to-understand book, the author details his own journey into investing from his early influences from his dad, to what he learned in the realm of academia, to researching other great Superinvestors. Across various books and media, these wildly successful investors have shared their teachings on evaluating companies, how to think about market cycles, investor mindsets, and how the macro economy effects investing. So You Want to Be a Superinvestor? is a comprehensive book that takes the various lessons learned from the Superinvestors and illustrates these points by using examples from the authors own life. The author also makes observations on market moving events, the changing psychology of investors, and provides research and examples from history to guide you in your investing journey. These principles can be used by beginners to intermediate investors to emulate the success of the greats.
