Three main things:
1, Deliberate Practice => mental representation
2, Purposeful practice: Specific goal, intense focus, Immediate feedback, frequent discomfort
3, Expert Coaching
Thats bullshit.
@@pinny492 cope and seethe, failure.
@@amneenja5720 what does that mean??.....
Specific goal. Intense periods of practice. Immediate feedback. Frequent discomfort.
Plus expert advice
"Frequent discomfort", reduce your dairy and wheat consumption and see how you feel 2 weeks later.
Filosofa Stone - expert advice on area of mental representation.
Absolutely
@pala pala reduce all forms of entertainment and social activities to see how you feel 2 weeks later.
Good video. Thanks!
Key takeaway: Aimless/unstructured practice - '10,000 hours' are not predictors of progress & improvement - DELIBERATE practice is.
Purposeful Practice:
1. have a specific goal
2. Intense focus (1 hour)
3. Immediate feedback
4, Frequent discomfort (gradually increase level of difficulty)
Cycle of improvement:
1. rapid progress
2. hitting a perceived limit - Hitting a perceived limit is due to TECHNIQUE issues, NOT to effort issues - 5:50
3. prolonged frustration
4. sudden breakthrough
and starting on #1 again (iterate).
Purposeful practice leads to creating mental adaptations, spark creative insight (MENTAL REPRESENTATIONS/mental models), that will help to efficiently achieve goals and improve results.
MENTAL REPRESENTATIONS (words, images, and feelings) let you re-create experiences, make accurate predictions, and condense information.
Purposeful Practice Methods + Expert Coaching = DELIBERATE PRACTICE. That seems to be an optimal formula for improvement.
But talent is still needed in spite of all that
Wrong @@pinny492
I've just finished reading the Peak and I have to say, that my overall impression was widely different than yours. Deliberate practice surely is a core idea of the book, but for me, the most striking fact was how the author provided numerous examples against talent theory and various kinds of innate abilities. Just to make a quick summary if someone is interested:
1) Absolute Pitch was for years widely considered an innate ability that you either have or have not. Nowadays though there are more and more scientific studies which challenge this assumption and according to them it is possible to teach (almost) every child this ability if only you start early enough and do it properly.
2) High intelligence (perceived as IQ score) is widely considered to be a factor that helps people be better at highly logical skills like maths, physics or chess. The interesting thing is that while it is true at the beginning of learning a new skill (children with higher IQ overall do better in those activities on average) in the later stages there are no longer such differences. GM chess players aren't more intelligent than IM ones and most successful scientists aren't more intelligent than their less successful counterparts. Also on every stage of developing a skill, the most important factor is time spent on proper (deliberate) practice.
3) Nowadays there is a lot of fascination about the prodigies - children with supposedly superhuman abilities in art, music or science. The author provides numerous examples to prove that there is no magic in any of those people - usually, they just started very early and spend a ridiculous amount of time developing their skills in the right way.
4) I think the core message the author wants to tell the readers is that, contrary to common belief, everyone is able to achieve mastery in many different fields and it has nothing to do with innate abilities and everything to do with life-long, well-designed practice. We should stop categorizing children (and adults) as "athletes", "maths-people", "art-people", "music-people" and so on and tell every one of them that they could be good at any skill they want if only they spent some time learning in the proper way.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! That helps.
He doesn't oppose your core message, you're just focussing on a different aspect of the book.
@@acidtears Well that's surely true, that's what I'm trying to say here.
But we have Examples like Albert Einstein whose Neuron Activity in Brain were known to be quite good for Understanding Advanced Physics and So is the case of Ramanujan
Thanks
anyone who has ever accomplished anything of significance, can look back to a moment where he/she was on the verge of quitting. This moment, which invariably occurs in one's endeavor of accomplishing a goal, is the KEY moment, i.e., quit (as most will) you fail; "stay the course," however, and you will succeed. Put another way, getting through this moment is the breakthrough.
That is how our behaviour is described in the cusp catastrophe model. At a certain point (the fold) we will either continue or discontinue something, depending on a variety of factors such as social pressure, hope etc.
But, does staying the course neccessarily get you through? It seems not in quite a few instances.There are never garauntees of anything
"Limits were a technique issue not an effort issue." I find this true whenever I'm doing something difficult or trying to wrap my head around something. This is amazing. This is exactly what I'm doing right, getting frustrated, then having a breakthrough that makes me relieved. This goes on and on and when you look back you realize how far you've come.

Hi Pankaj, I made an animated summary of this book "Peak" in Hindi. Would love your feedback on that. :)
thanks for this video, finished reading peak few days back, came back today just to thank, I would've missed an absolute gem otherwise!
THis channel continues to be my favorite and I love those 1 page cheat sheets
Right!
Specific goal. Intense periods of practice. Immediate feedback. Constantly overcoming the boundary of skill and the unknown. It's funny because these are also the conditions for getting into flow as highlighted by Mihaly Csikzentmihalyi in his book "Flow".
They also fall into Dr. Cal Newport's "Deep Learning" school of thought. Mihaly's book is amazing and I've experienced such in many things. It is truly a state of Nirvana. Very, very cool.
Its all bullshit.Focus, flow, intense practice.The whole lot of it does absolute Fuck All. No gain in skill at all. Doesnt make a fuck of difference how you practice, the only people who will become good are those with specific genes.This is conclusively proven by studies.
@@TheJacklwilliams got it?
Excellent summary! I just finished reading “Peak” and came back to this video to see if you’d provide more clarity on the concept of “mental representations.” You DO make it clearer than the chapter on it in “Peak.” Articles I’ve just read on “mental representation” by philosophers and psychologists keep it abstract, but your practical explanation is so clear I can apply it immediately. Thank you!
Mental representation is just the method you use for holding that information in your head. It will be a way that works for you. You might make a system of a huge palace that never changes, but what is in each room does, depending on what you might want to recall. Memory athletes develop systems for remembering huge numbers of things based on a trip, like their drive to work, and store specific objects that they want to remember, or specific things that represent values they want to recall, in the order of the trip. Essentially, they're using what they already know, to store something new. I've taught people to remember 10 random objects by mentally putting them in different rooms of their house. THAT is the mental representation.
@@admacdo Thanks! I’ve heard Jim Kwik talk about processes like the one you use. Since I wrote that comment a year ago, I realized many ways in which I’d already been using mental representations and have developed some more. It would be cool to use your method to deliver a presentation without notes!
Awesome video! Will definitely check this book out - Not a big fan of the background music though, keep up the awesome work!
yeah please change the music, shit id rather have no music honestly
Practical Psychology Hey, I really appreciate the content. I was wondering what software do you use use to produce these videoes?
Thank you, @@sahilvasava! :D
The music's fine.
I think background sound is not bothering at all.
I bought the book and finished it after watching your video. Thanks for a visible and thorough summary.
thanks again productivity game for another great video! i listened to the book peak, twice now, as Anders was such a fantastic academic, and so thorough in anticipating critics.
the book has helped me to understand where i’ve plateaued in the past without a suitable teacher/ mentor. and it gives me hope in my future learning endeavours.
thanks again!
I figured this thing recently before watching your video and now after going through some evidences I assert that this are the most critical principles that every performer should be aware of
I had heard about these points before but not in such a distilled and clear way. Thanks for the vid.
After watching this review I got the book and its good. Your review was accurate and a quality summary. Thanks for the great work
Great work! Very impressive summaries well enjoyed
the presentation of this book is impressive. It is interesting to find out more about deliberate practice. Thank you for sharing this video.
One page summary is really a big help. Thank for your excellent contribution.
Good summary. Mental representation are more like a byproduct of deliberate practice. I really enjoyed reading the book. Highly recommend it to everybody.

I love this!
I always call these things he refers to as mental representations as visualizations.
In our mind it helps us to visualize what we're thinking about & what we're going to do if we want to do it well, it's as close to true predilection that we have, as we visually represent the concepts, as well as how they might manifest in relationship to other concepts, even without ever interacting with them or seeing things play out before our eyes, we can predict accurately what will happen, assuming we are not missing any confounding variables.
And these visualization techniques can even help us to recognize our blind spots, as certain new pieces of data don't seem to fit, so our theories & framework need to be reframed, or our worldview, perceptions, & perspectives in more appropriate vocabulary.
As we further align the structure of our perspectives with the structures of our reality, so can our mind then converge upon new, unseen realities with the mind before the eyes.
Such is a huge component of both creativity & expertise & intelligence in my perception.
True sight.
Thank you so much

For anyone looking, I made an animated summary of this book "Peak" in Hindi. Would love your feedback on that. Thanks! :)
Main point is PRACTICE is the key to anything!!!!!!!!!!
yup but the one part that's missing makes this statement a disaster, feedback is too important. if you practice wrong for decades, you will be wrong. (see the got talent shows of how some people live in their own mental castles, and when they sing , Oh god :P)
not just practice, Deliberate pratice is key.
*Right practice.
I’m watching one video from this channel every time I go to the rest room. It’s great idea if you plan to watch it daily.
My personal record of remembering digits is 180 random numbers and I could quote the list backwards. How: I learned memory tricks from Tony Buzan books.
The conditions of Purposeful Practice are almost identical to the conditions for Flow. Very interesting...
6:44 I see u Mr Krabs
The book was too wordy
This sums it all up, thank you
Steve Faloon died before he could complete his first year of teaching at South Side Catholic, May 14, 1981, at 23, a victim of the obscure disease of aplastic anemia, which attacks bone marrow.
So exegesis and thanks for the gist...
How do I apply this method to programming?
I wonder what sorts of “bad habits” can be unconsciously developed in this manner? Could an explanation be built with this model to simulate the impacts of child abuse? Depression, etc? You may have to shake up the definitions of the terms used a bit, but i think there could be something there
pls make a video on tools of titans....
I've found it as "Peak: Secrets from the New Science of Expertise", but it has the same authors and seems to be the same book. I guess the subtitle was changed in later editions 🤔
