10,000 hours of practice make a genius?
In his book Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell made an interesting observation: that people who rose above the rest and achieved incredible success in their respective endeavors all have one thing in common: they spent at least 10,000 hours learning and internalizing and perfecting their crafts.
