    **THE FIRST 20 HOURS - HOW TO LEARN ANYTHING** 1. Deconstruct the skill: - decide exactly what you want to be able to do when you're done, and then look into the skill and break it down into smaller pieces. 2. Learn enough to self correct: - learn just enough that you can actually practice and self correct or self edit as you practice. 3. Remove barriers to practice: - remove the distractions that are keeping you from practicing. 4. Practice for at least 20 hours: - by pre-committing to practicing whatever it is that you want to do for at least 20 hours, you will be able to overcome initial frustration barrier and stick with the practice long enough to actually reap the rewards. 5. The major barrier's not intellectual, it's emotional.

When i was learning english, i've tried to memorize all the words and vocab as much as possible, but after months i still can't speak or even give a comment in youtube or instagram post in english. After watched this video i realize, i don't need all the words in oxford dictionary to start speaking, like that ukelele chords, know some important words is enough for you to speak in foreign language, and that's what i do now.

I found another good way to learn English let me share with u. don't try to remember words as it is very discouraged. instead try read the books /newspaper that is your level. your level means in one page there is no more than 10 unknown words to u. and dun hurry to search the meaning of every single words u duno. just guess the meaning and move on. if u feel happy just look up for 1 - 2 words u find interesting. that's my way of learning. just sharing 😊👍

    4 simple steps to “Rapid Skill acquisition” are: 1- Deconstruct the skill and decide exactly what you would be able to do by breaking down the skill into smaller pieces 2- Learn enough to self correct (Learn enough part of the skill which you can practice and self correct) 3- Remove practice barriers (distractions) by utilising a little will power 4- Practice at least 20 hours

    00:00 Becoming a parent changes priorities and learning new things becomes difficult. 02:45 The 10,000 hour rule for skill acquisition is based on studies of expert-level performance. 05:09 The 10,000 hour rule is a game of telephone 07:30 You can learn a new skill in just 20 hours of focused practice. 09:47 To learn a skill, deconstruct it and practice the most important parts first, learn enough to self-correct, remove barriers to practice, and practice for at least 20 hours. 12:07 Commit to practicing for 20 hours to overcome initial frustration and learn anything. 14:19 Playing the ukulele requires only a small set of chords 16:47 Put 20 hours into anything to learn it.

Practice just enough to notice when you do mistakes and get on the right path. 3. Remove the distractions. Disable notifications and remove all the distractions. 4. Practice at least 20 hours.

    I really believe in everything he has just said. It is important to avoid procrastination guys. I am telling you this because of my life experience. I moved to Canada when I was 20 years old and my life has changed completely. I was studying computer engineering in my home country and was about to complete my 3rd year when my mother took the decision to move to Canada. It was really difficult at the beginning because of the language and culture. My knowledge about English was probably between 30% and 45%, so I had to invest part of time studying English. I proposed to myself that I had to learn the language at a university level in 1 year, and it worked. I still need improvements, but I feel really proud of myself because I was able to learn the language. After having learned English, I applied to University of Toronto to study Computer Science, and since the semester was going to start on September of the following year, I took that year to study everything about my career. I took my time to study advanced functions, calculus, physics and programming. What do I mean about all of this? You can learn everything you want if you really want to. The crucial part of all of this is to believe that you can do it. I personally do not believe in what the science says about the "SPECIAL KIDS". We all are smart beings that have the same capacities to learn everything we want. You can do it guys if you are willing to take the effort. I hope you have a great day and I wish you all the best ☺️. NEVER GIVE UP.

    Summary: Just 20 hours is enough to become “reasonably good” at any skill. 1. Deconstruct the skill - Break the skill down into its most basic parts. Which parts are necessary for hitting the goal you have? (i.e. if your goal is to sing a song in Korean, you can primarily focus on pronunciation, not learning a bunch of vocabulary) 2. Learn enough to self correct - Learn enough to realize when you're making mistakes. 3. Remove barriers to practice - Turn off your phone, unplug the TV. Put your guitar, piano, language book in the middle of your room, not behind your stack of dirty laundry. 4. Practice for at least 20 hours - Commit to 20 hours from the start. You're going to be frustrated at times, so committing beforehand will help you push through the frustration.

    I spent several hours trying to learn Russian... In that 2 or 3 hours, I learned to read Russian and a few greetings. I can now read Russian, but not understand everything and put together sentences and my dictionary is very small. On that first 2 hours, I learned about as much Russian as I did Greek on my first day of Greek school. The difference with learning Greek is that my family speaks Greek. When I started learning German in school, I spent about 45 minutes a day learning German with other people. With Russian, I don't know many people who speak Russian. ( I know 2...not that I have much contact with them). If I can do it, chances are so can most people. You just gotta have the motivation. I started learning German because I took an interest in World War II. After becoming fairly competent in German, I decided to learn Russian. You just gotta have the drive. JUST DO IT! DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS!

    Thanks so much! This is so true. When I was 13 I really wanted to learn the guitar, and three months with daily working at it the way they tried to teach it in school got me nowhere. 2 years later I tried again with a totally different approach, basically just having fun with it and not being afraid of making mistakes but learning from them and 6 months later I was in a good band playing the lead guitar. No one expects you to learn anything by doing it right from the beginning anyway so just dive into it, make some mistakes and have fun. Learning rocks!

    I was always better than my classmates in speaking english, but I wasn't well enough to able to speak properly or understand completely. Then one day one thought came up and I've decided to be as better as I can in speaking english. Now, I've been practicing english for almost 1 year. At least 20 minutes a day. That's 20 minutes made me way better english speaker than I was before. When I saw this video I wanted to share my experience. Guys, I watched this video without any subtitle and understood every single words thanks to my 20 minutes efforts a day. I achieved this level without any partner or course. Although I'm still not that good enough and you can find lots of errors I've made in my comment, I know that I'm gonna be better day by day and eventually achieve my goal. Whatever you wanna learn, just believe in yourself and practice at least 20 minutes a day. Good luck.

He even specified you won't become an expert, you will become decent. That's the whole point of the video. He wanted to break the misconception of the 10,000 hour rule and encourage people to learn a subject they have been wanted to address and that it is not impossible, it takes 20 hours and you will have learned the basics and that it is do-able even if your schedule is tight.

Through your books and inspiring speeches, you have shared your knowledge and experiences in a way that has allowed me to grow and thrive. Your passion for learning and your willingness to help others acquire practical skills are a constant source of inspiration for me. Thanks to you, I have learned to approach each new experience with curiosity and determination, understanding that learning is a continuous journey. The way you have transformed your own experience of becoming a parent into a new perspective on learning is truly remarkable. It shows how open you are to the lessons that life offers us and how committed you are to sharing these teachings generously. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do. Your love for learning and your ability to teach with kindness and clarity make you an extraordinary individual. I wish you all the happiness and success you deserve, both professionally and personally. With all my love and gratitude,

    No, its not. The major barrier in leaning anything is finding someone that can put it in term simple enough to understand. Ninety nine percent of those books are written so badly that you leave as clueless as when you came in.Thing is, you've got to read through all of them before you can find the one that makes what you want to learn make sense. Only a very small group of people know how to do this. And even smaller group knows how to make learning interesting.

    @@krane15 I agree with this, but perhaps the fact that you are reading those books, and that you're a part of that small group that knows how to make learning interesting, means that you have already passed the emotional barrier. Most people don't have the interest or motivation to seek out that knowledge in the first place. I don't think you're wrong, I think you're awesome. But maybe you've been awesome for so long that you've forgotten the challenges that prevent non-awesome people from being awesome?

    @@AaronAtkinson When you said motivation you struck a never. In my entire time in HS I don't recall a single teacher that went above and beyond to teach. They did the minimum to meet their requirements, but no more, and no less. Well, maybe sometimes less. In any event, if the student got it, fine. If they didn't, it was their tough luck. In college, I had a total of two professors that went above and beyond the call of duty to help me and other student to pas tests and succeed. What I mean is they did things like coming in on their days off to give students individual tutelage on parts they found difficult, and helping the surmount other administrative challenges that would get in the way of their studies. I guess I would categorize that on removing all distractions. But that's easier said than done. Some distractions are under your control, others are not. Eliminating all distractions takes time and can be draining. Anyway, I know this isn't exactly on topic, but your post reminded me, and it is closely related nonetheless. They say you can learn anything on youtube. Thing is. you have to watch 10 hours of useless videos to get to that one that put things in terms that you can understand. Can you then say you learned how to grow radishes in 1 hour? What becomes of that 10 hours of video where you learned next to nothing? Nevertheless, I appreciate the compliment, but I wouldn't call myself awesome. Rather, I say I was aware -- of some of the difficulties in learning a new skills, and so can often recognize and focus on getting around those difficulties. When the author claims 20 hours it takes for granted that all the time is productive, and ignores the time it takes to get through all the useless material to get to that actual leaning point. A structured learning environment removes much of that effort, but not necessarily all of it. Of course the true definition of learning has always bothered me as well. Is memorizing learning? If you don't understand what the nomenclature or what the jargon means, knowing the definition won't help you much. On the other hand, you can always memorize a passage and get it right, but that doesn't mean you understand it. If an instructor puts it in the right words you can learn something new instantly. When they don't, or can't, they can repeat it a million times and it still won't resonate or have any real meaning. I offer my most challenging example: A linear equation is an equation in the form y = mx + b. Maybe its ridiculously clear to some folks (a left brain/right brain thing?), but it wasn't to me. At least, not at the time. Cliffs: 1) Part of learning is teaching, and teachers can be good or really, really bad. 2) Only a small percentage of teachers go beyond the minimum required to teach. 3) Total study time is not always relate to total learning time. 4) Comfortable learning environments vary, and can sometimes be difficult to achieve. 5) Memorizing material may not be considered the same as learning it.

    I came across Joshes book at my local library the other day and had to nab it, it's just by coincidence that I found this video. He's absolutely spot on though. Everyone thinks they don't have time to do X, but it's because they're usually spending their time doing things that don't help them grow. Feel free to watch an hour of Netflix or binge a show, but just do something productive for 30-60 minutes and make that a reward you get. Being disciplined doesn't mean you can't enjoy those things, in fact, being disciplined means you can enjoy more of those things because now you've created more time.

    This is quite simple as Josh put it. Why have I all these years been told by instructors to do this and that, and they kept on putting doubts in my mind day after day. When it isn't intellectual as I thought, but emotional. That was the secret sauce I never new about that prevented my wanting to take on several new challenges, because I thought I was smart enough. This could be the pitfall for many students today, not knowing Josh's simple concept.

In reality, we have to decide on our goals and our desired level of achievement. It is good to have this reference point. So, for any of us, the truth lies somewhere between 20 and 10K hours.

    About the 10 000 rule (6:15), i find it interesting how it went from achieving a very special expert skill to 10 000 hours to learn anything. I think that reflects a lot on people's mindset, how they usually try something not out of interest and passion, but to immediately become the best at it. It isn't done out of love but out of competition, and that's way seeing a number such as 10 000 hours is discouraging for a lot of people who want to try something new. Because they don't want to fully admit that they are not investing themselves in the hobby for the right reason, and so they find an excuse to flake out the first chance they get out of "but this is just too difficult and i dont have the time for it"

    This video made me want to learn Japanese again , I would start learning Japanese by learning from books designed for schools, they would slowly teach you grammar rules and a couple of business words are how to greet someone . I would quickly get bored and after a couple of weeks quit. But that's the thing the books I was using were designed to teach business men , they focus on grammar because it's an easy subject to grade on tests. But I don't care about any of that. What I need is the most important elements, that will make it easy for me to understand general Japanese . I'm still going to use those books but I'm not going to make them the central focus of my learning.

    10,000 hours to master a new skill - watch it ! 20 hours to be reasonably good at something - IF you apply 4 steps : 1. Deconstruct skill - start with the most important parts first 2. Learn enough to self-correct 3. Remove practice barriers/distractions - TV, internet 4. Practice minimum 20 hours - the barrier here is the frustration that comes from the lack of knowledge : we suck and we know it. Doing 20h might seem short, but intense focus is actually hard to maintain, because of emotional junk. The major barrier to skill acquisition is not intellectual - it’s emotional.
