In this video we examine the the psychology of mastery, and look at deliberate practice and the role in plays in the attainment of expert performance.
Recommended Readings:
There are a lot of books on mastery. To steer clear of the "fluff", I recommend these books:

This channel is far too underrated.
True
Amen

I'm afraid this may be a little too 'innerlectual' for the slight majority of people.
Yup, it’s a blast learning psychology and philosophy from the kid in Napoleon Dynamite.
A good teacher once told me: don’t practice something until you get it right, rather practice until you can’t get it wrong
thanks for posting this mate
Love it. I'm gonna definitely remember that one.
That's an amazing quote. Thank you for sharing.
This quote is an oxymoron if not in the right context. I see it as don't waste your time getting the fundamentals perfect. Get them good enough so that you can move onto the next step. Eventually, you will get the fundamentals perfect because you will use them for every step afterwards.
Nobody told you that. I've heard this quote many times idiot
Notes:
1. Do not conform to society and do not let it control you. Be your own mastermind.
2. Select a craft.
3. Innate talent influences how well a person do his craft, but it is deliberate practice (hardwork, passion & repitition) that makes him achieve great heights.
10,000 hours of practice makes a professional
Kram Dantes
4. Seek critique where applicable eg. painting. Involves: Objectivity, overcoming pride, discernment about what feedback is valuable and what isn't.
@@decrodedart2688 that is good advice as long as the person making the critique is a master himself, if not, it is a waste.
5. Don't become resentful of society
@@Rhodiac too late lol
*“The active way of obtaining satisfaction entails frustration.”* In 2017, I almost quit my love for drawing because I was so unhappy that I wasn't good enough as other artists. But at the same time, I forced myself to learn and practice more every single day. It was hard and frustrating, my goals seemed impossible. But I'm proud to say that at the end of the year, I was able to see an incredible improvement in my work. I still feel proud of myself for the attitude I adopted. Today, I feel more positive in my abilities and if there are things I can improve on, I don't worry cause I know that everything is achievable through practice. What you said about this kind of satisfaction being long lasting is absolutely true, cause I still look back at that time in my life with pride and now I'm even more excited to grow.
I am struggling the same thing, thank you for sharing this.
Great stuff
What what did you do to stop this tyranny and impending disaster? Fuck your crayons.
Good to hear because i am at that phase of your past. i am struggling with motivation to draw
Good job🎉
Being a violin player I can relate to this so much. Talent matters but it's mostly practice what makes you outstanding. I have had Russian teachers since I was little and they would put me to practice often more than 5 hours. The ideal for them is 8 hours per day. I've now come to the conclusion that its bette if you practice 5 hours efficiently. Great video!
Yeah, I play euphonium and I've got to say that I've improved a lot more over the past month or so compared to the last year or two because I've practiced more and I've practiced more efficiently.
I just practise 20 minutes of violin everyday, and eventually it is a lot as I have improved.
This reminds me of Sartre: Man is nothing else but that which he makes of himself.
After all, we are what we do on daily basis
Sounds cool but it's still one-sided 6:20 The interesting part is that action counts more ...
I love this information that confirms what I've learned in the last 13 years. But remember talk is cheap actions speak louder than words. These real simple words are supposed to be igniters. Not just cute little sayings and thought-provoking ideas. But are only worth anything if acted upon.
10,000 hours of correct fundamental practice. Discipline will only get you so far, enjoying what you want to master is all that is necessary. Everytime I get closer to mastering a masterpiece of music the more grateful I become and the more insight I gain for the next. Soon it is like breathing and if I don't do it I feel I'm suffocating. Understand, when I'm NOT playing is when I potentially can become frustrated, NOT while playing. When I play I'm breathing. 4 hours a day is not enough for me its better than addictions or some kind of vice. Appreciation and gratitude gets you there, to that authentic enjoyment when time flies by and you are immersed in your chosen art or field.
Vex tract I agree. Mastering something should always be a mix between play and work. I make music too and it's definitely work in the sense of pushing yourself and your boundaries occasionally but at the core of it you should only be pushing your boundaries because youre having a good ass time doing it I mean shit they call it "playing" for a reason
Oh yes, I heartily agree. I encountered a "truism" many years ago. It espoused the theory that the creative force if refused manifestation into the material will become the monster of gigantic proportions. I envision this monster to be the "Monster from the ID"... *Forbidden Planet*
fuck... when i am playing guitar, im happy... why do i ever stop? you said it, brother.
I get the art.
4 hrs are never enough for me to write my novel either.
What's your instrument Vexy my bro?
You're a hero dude, love your videos.
This channel is too good for us mere mortals
Ha. Ha.
We're all mortals here lmao so I don't know what you mean
@@myfinallight speak for yourself mortal
@@bootafromune1 Exactly, I'm no mere mortal.
Thjh
Sir, you are changing lives of people in unspeakable manner . Thank you . I am gonna definitely read some books from which you take quotes.
Natural talent is overrated. The highest math I reached in high school was algebra 2. I even did remedial math in college. Now I'm much stronger at math and even record and write algorithm tutorials. I was never a natural but practice made me stong.
Colorful Codes How long did you practice for? I have trouble with being consistent with coding. I do good for a while but then I stop.
@@DOUBLE0SEVUN oops never saw this sorry. I'd say one needs 6 months of consistent study to learn and gain strength in algorithms and data structures. At least 1 leetcode a day is good. I didn't do that though my study was on and off.
This is so inspiring to me. I want to love math but have discalculia and actually learned to hate it in grade school. I too only made it to algebra 2 in HS. In college however, I learned to love coding, calculus, and statistics. I haven't done any math in years, but this comment reminds me that I can still improve, and maybe even one day be sorta good at math. lol
It's not overrated tbh what domain you choosed it matters maths in your case is mostly depends on practice and same goes for coding but you can't denie many places where you require talent to succeed obviously with hard work
Love this and similar to what happened with myself. It felt like I was just unable to absorb much less remember math long enough to pass exams but once I started taking math in college I did so well I exempted exams. Had to do a lot of studying but the help of great instructors, people who wanted to be in class helping each other, and seeing that it was in pursuit of a goal that I needed to learn it all helped so much
I will be a master of Love.
For there is no greater purpose than this, and no greater need in this world at this time. Thank you 😊🏔️💜
I fell in love with this Channel after my philosophy class. Please keep up the good work.
Will Sirius m
Will Sirius it's a nice channel but it's not enough if your a philosophy student I recommend you to search the TH-camr named Gregory B. Sadler he explains philosophical concepts with detail far much better than this channel.
This video popped up into my feed at the right time. Thank you
Mastery in one field is failure in others. Mastery demands sacrifice. A fulfilling life is filled with compromise. Your ability to manage that is what I call success.
Thank you for the concise and practical way you deliver deep ideas! As a mom I often find myself between two choices - to teach my children to be "good" at school, at home, in the society and to be "masters of their own lives, captains of the ships of their lives". This becomes easier with the realization that they do not have to choose one "right" behavior. Rather, it is important for me as a parent to show them different ways and to empower them to be free in their choices. To be masters of their lives. To choose the way to mastery as a life-path.

There are a lot of books on mastery. To steer clear of the "fluff" I recommend these books:

Mastery - Robert Greene - amzn.to/2fiiMi4 (affiliate link)

What books would be on the "fluff" side
Your work on this channel may help to make me a better Homo exercens. I thank you . . .
+ Michael Hand I'd rather not specify them, some might find them useful. But of the ones I've read the ones listed above have the most substance, in my opinion.
If you don't mind me asking, what are your sources for the slide at 7:55?
+Coregazer "A finding that is remarkably consistent across disciplines is that four or five hours a day seems to be the upper limit of deliberate practice, and this is frequently accomplished in sessions lasting no more than an hour to ninety minutes. The best violinists in the Berlin study, for example, practiced about three and a half hours a day, typically in two or three sessions. Many other top-level musicians report four or five hours as their upper limit. Chess champions typically report the same amount of practice. Even elite athletes say the factor that limits their practice time is their ability to sustain concentration." (Geoff Colvin, Talent is Overrated)
Thank you so much for taking the time and putting in the energy to make this insightful video! Your channel is amazing
The quality of thought in this video is really excellent. You are providing a wonderful service to us all! Thank you.
Ur videos are immense. They help me so much and in turn, i can help others with more insight from all the great teachers out there. Thank u
It's really fascinating to see the growth of this channel. What really stands out to me is the tone of the narrators voice. While here it is more energetic and juvenile it acquired a more mature and deep tone with the years
Thanks for that. I needed to hear it.
I've a musical gift, rarely practice, but can get on stage and wow em.
I know that by not practicing, I'm only cheating myself. Deep inside I want to improve, but music comes to me so easily. Why practice diligently?
I want mastery. Therefore, I must practice to have it.
Thank you for the inspiration.
This channel has been the starting point of a new path in my life whose pursuit is sure to be quite an adventure....thanks!!!
Thank you so much for creating these videos. I have watched several of them and became your avid fan, you are both excellent in content and delivery style. Keep up the good work you are doing us all learners a grand favour :)
I love the videos that are out up on this channel. In a world where value education is dead, the lessons you share will resonate for years to come.
Magnificent! I desperately needed to hear this. This is a foundation I'll build on. I'm extremely grateful for this. Keep up the good work. You're resurrection dead dreams with your content. Be blessed!
This channel is what brings light into my life.....Thank you 🙏🙏
This video really woke up me. I’ve have been reading about this, watched shows, scrolling on social media posts, it comes up in conversations, & I dream of taking action & start working towards my goals. So many signs have come up & now it’s explained to me that the reason why I haven’t taken any action in the first place is because deliberate practice isn’t actually suppose to be enjoyable despite it being something I love. This has made it clear that it’s hard work not because finding what you want to do in life is hard but because upon finding it, actually doing isn’t fun at all. It’s challenging, painful, frustrating & giving up or not starting will give you the dopamine rush you need to get rid of this anxiety but will never fulfill your deepest purpose. It’s about 2 am & I’m so alert to this realization I am now going to put my phone down & finish this project due tomorrow lol starting with 90 mins doesn’t seem so bad
Your channel has a very good content. My piece of advice: don't only focus on modern and medieval western philosophy but also on ancient one and the philosophy of the east like yoga, zen, and other ancient religions and cultures
Thank you so much taking your precious time and making this content
all of these videos on this channel are great. they are useful, clear and empowering. Thanks.
Thank you! I have been looking for this for a very long time!
Wonderful and educative topics in bite sizes 👌. I start and end the day listening to these topics. Thanks for sharing these stimulating ideas.
I just discovered your channel and its absolutely amazing. Already watched like 12 videos. Will make sure I will watch them all.
so hooked. cant stop listening
Francisco Betancourt indeed!!
Don’t use The Words ‘try’ or ‘cant’
Start There, you’re welcome
Wonderful as always. This channel is a goldmine. Thank you for your work.
this is the greatest channel i have ever subscribed to, and look at the book recommendations, i came here now just for that reason, and check my luck! Amazing. Thank you, Academy of Ideas!
I love the quote at the end by Anders Ericsson. Gave me chills.
How timely. This put things into perspective, again. Thank you.
This is beautiful. I agree. This channel is very underrated.
This channel is interesting, I like the way the research and ideas are presented
God man youre videos are incredible! I have watched probably about 10 now, and each time I have been shocked by how well-done, informative, entertaining, and important the video was. You are doing amazing work sir, please keep it up for those of us that are enjoying these videoa so thoroughly. I feel very grateful and fortunate to have access to what you're putting out.
Thank you,Sean (ignore my username)
+John Smith Thank you for your comment.
I've been learning guitar for a little under a year and jesus christ this hits home. It is literally infuriating to pick it up to learn something new, but the evidence doesnt lie, old recordings of myself vs now and I'm a way better player (do have a lot more to learn, but I'm better off than I was)
Great motivation, great educative videos, thnks for making em.
Your videos worth more than a lecture just taught in college. Best of best among other.
Thanks for sharing transcripts.
Thanks for this video, it clarified and inspired.
Best content on the internet. The entire internet. Thank you.
I really needed this video, Thanks man.
I love this one in particular, thank you.
This reminds me of the book Talent is Overrated - same principals. Glad I found this channel.
Ty for your efforts. I enjoy this and the other topics. Cheers.
I have always beat myself up over not doing enough in the day, but hearing that 4-5 hours is toward the upper limit of deliberate practice in a day's work something clicked in why no matter how driven I can be something shuts down after a certain period and I refuse to do what my mind tells me. Maybe aiming to utilize 4-5 hours the most constructive way possible is a better alternative to my current attempts. Always a gem in each video
Absolutely fantastic! Thanks a million!
I agree, I worship this channel. Well done.
it is gratifying to know that i am not crazy.these men share my views on life, THANK YOU FOR THE CHANNEL.
Sir, you just got a new subscriber. I really needed to here this. Thanks!
Great video, as always!! Good job! I am very sure we could agree on many philosophical, political, and economic topics. I will donate to your effort. I have seen almost all your videos, and you distill excellent remarks about life. Congratulations.
I appreciate the comment! And thank you for your donation!
Your content is pure gold.
Beautiful and insightful as ever.
Not a single word out of place in deacribing how to master what ever that is desired.
Obstacles and Challenges And discomfort are the cornerstones of improvement.
And it is recommended that if you really want ongoing improvements throughout out life from young age to like mid 30 rd that you learn how to overcome Obstacles seek necessary challenges And become very close friend with discomfort...
Once you have those unshakeable foundations in place feel free to add whatever layer that takes your fancy and chances are high that more likely then not you will end up a master In any field of your choosing.
Despite what is being sold now days nothing worth while comes easy.
brilliant compilation, thanks
physical can only take you so far , heart and mind take one to master , true in self , as well as seen by others , action , louder than words .
i am speechless... i love ur work!!!
Very informative video. Thank you. Needed this. :)
Awesomeness. Thanks for making this.
In the 19th century, Thorstein Veblen explained that mastery is possible if you don't have to work a grueling job; it's a benefit of being a member of the Leisure Class.
This channel is a fountain of divine wisdom.
Seriously my favorite channel on TH-cam. Thank you for being so enriching. I'm now wondering what I can do, as a writer, to push myself forward? What would be a new obstacle to overcome, how can I make my practicing more deliberate?
Elianne El-Amyouni The book Mind-Power, the secret of mental magic by William Walker Atkinson, has helped me so much in learning to master myself. For without a proper mastery over ourselves, all our efforts will be useless. I hope this book may bring you as much as it has brouth me! How are you getting along with your writing now?
great video as always
This was amazing. Thank you.
What a wonderful video!
Just supported you guys! Please never stop making these videos
Awesome, thanks for the support. We have no plan of stopping. Cheers.
Thank you Academy of Ideas
Whoever made this page and content is one hell of a wise man
Great video. Very relevant to my acting career
Only passing through difficulties you learn it’s just hard to stay a Human Being with it’s all natural abilities to discover . Universe is teaching if we’ll pay attention and understand .🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Great video....the next time my family make contact I need to make them watch this. I'm sure many others feel the same judging by these comments. Great channel....nearly every suggested video reels me in👍👍
I believe this to be simple common sense. Everyone can get better at anything with practice and discipline, but everyone is still limited by their own bodies physical and mental capabilities.
Great thanks for your contributions. 😃
Academy of Ideas is THE BEST!
Great content man keep it up
great channel ..concentrated knowledge
Awesome content and vid thanks
Great lesson
You be your natural self. Fear of one encourages others to deceit. Not always which is shown outside is true. Overcome fear and be normal. Follow your passion to keep yourself busy and encouraged.
Great video!
very underrated video! love the subject and the philosophical views (from Nietzsche) :)
thank you for this gem
Excellent video
This channel is moving towards mastery and sure will attain mastery in near future.
Just discovered this channel, just great..
I believe mastery of anything requires a burning desire and dedication or commitment. With these two ingredients, virtually anyone of any background or means can achieve mastery.
This took what I was feeling and turned into words.
This is an amazing channel 👍
i found you through a youtube comment. shoutout to you if you're reading this. i'm mad at myself for not discovering this channel earlier. thank you for the beautiful video.
magnificent video
You're videos are great
Among my THREE BEST CHANNELS SINCE A KID
I love this channel..
