Existe la falsa creencia generalizada de que los que llegan a dominar una materia, o llegan a ser grandes expertos en algo tienen un don para ese algo. Gran error pensar asi. Esa manera de pensar invita a uno/a a autodescartarse para perseguir el sueño de ser muy bueno en algo que a uno le apasiona. Vemos Everests inalcanzables, donde si son alcanzables. El profesor Anders Ericson, después de muchos estudios y analisis, explica, con muy buenos ejemplos, algo que para mi es obico, pero que me ha ido bien recordar, profundizar y entener mejor: que a la maestría en cualquier disciplina se llega, no solo después de muchas horas de práctica, sino de un entrenamiento enfocado a resultados. Entre otras cosas mas que no puedo resumir aqui... Super interesante, esperanzador y motivador. En definitiva.. y esto ya es cosecha mia propia: En youtube hay tutoriales gratis para aprender casi de todo. ¿ En que queremos ser expertos?.. Solo es cuestión de tener esto claro y, luego, de una manera inteligente, ponerle muchas horas de pasión y dedicación a la matería. RECOMENDABLE. MOTIVA A PERSEGUIR TUS SUEÑOS.

It actually helped me to understand why my German language group courses haven't been producing much results and why I need to go for one-on-one courses instead.

This is probably the second-best book I have ever read in this genre (the best is, and probably always will be, 'Getting Things Done' by David Allen). Why did I love it? Because I read a LOT of books of this kind (self-help, psychology, business, etc.) and while lots of others provide good ideas or insights, this book provides a completely new way of looking at the world. That's why it's a game changer for me. From the way I am learning to dance to the way I work at my desk, the principles highlighted in this book are relevant and applicable. They say there are two tests for a good book: 1. Will I remember it in a month? and 2. Does it change the way I think about the world? This book is a resounding yes.
