It is said to be a common number that it takes around 10,000 hours to become an expert in any field. What's my opinion?

I very well believe that stands true.

In my previous post I spoke about 'Shiny Object Syndrome' and how people change their minds to often, before being able to actually achieve anything substantial in any specific field. I used to be a big victim of this, until my mentor taught me the power of 10,000 hours.

PS. Join my success team by FOLLOWING MY CONTENT :)

Most people will find a cool new idea, and spend 500 hours just focusing on that one thing. They will see substantial results in those first 500 hours. This is the foundation stage. They will feel motivated, and attempt at the next 500 hours, but this time not achieving as much satisfaction and the first round. What happens then, is they start to feel unaccomplished, and start getting bored. This then causes them to be attracted to new ideas, until eventually they just give up and move on.

This cycle always tends to repeat itself.

Most people cannot even succeed past 1000 hours..

Unfortunately, the world we live in today lives off of instant gratification. People want results to happen FAR too quickly. People are impatient. Do you not agree that if you were to spend 10,000 hours doing the same thing, day-in and day-out, that you will eventually achieve some results?

I want to keep my content simple. Short and sweet, but enough to learn.

I see people new to a concept, who are complaining that they haven't achieved the same results as others who have been doing the same thing for years. Strong example of this could be some Minnows on Steemit. Coming to the platform, and after 1 week they are upset because no one is seeing their posts.. Yet if you assess the situation, and ask them how many people they are engaging with on a daily basis, they don't have much to say.

Put in the work! :) Your results will come to persistence and consistent daily action.
