10,000 hour rule

May 12th, 2009

I’ve just picked up the Malcom Gladwell book, Outliers, to finish reading it.  I started it a while ago, but did not get to finish it yet.  Anyway having just reread the chapter 2, it focuses on the 10,000 hour rule, ”10,000 hours of practice is required to achieve the level of mastery associated with being a world-class expert-in anything”.  I’ve come to the conclusion that this rule cannot be applied to parenting!..but it is essential reading for all parents…Outliers Thanks Malcom.
