9. Josh Kaufman: The first 20 hours -- how to learn anything

It's a very inspiring video!

Josh Kaufman talked about learning new things. Also, he is an the author of the book with on the same subject.

There is one phrase about learning: you must spend 10000 hours to for learning something. However this is true only for being a top?, for an expert level of perfomance.

It is enough He said that 20 hours is enough to become for being resonabily good in at the skill he said. You just need to spend 50 minutes within a month.

There are 4 steps.
1. Deconstruct the skill. You must learn the most important things at the beginning
2. You must learn enough for in order to self-correct. But you must not learn just for learning. Your main goal is practicing. It isn't learning. Procrastination with reading 20 "important and usefull" books is not a good idea (ahhh, it's really what I was doing)
3. You must remove all practicing barriers. The TV, an the Internet, and your a phone, as they will disturb you and it is necessary to put aside those types of things such kind of stuff.
4. You have to learn the new skill for at least 20 hours. If you find that you are stupid and incapable to do of doing what you want, it's not a problem matter, you should continue. It's normal when you try to learn new things and succeed.all be good

It is "a" ukulele because the "u" in ukulele is a hard sounding "u", not a soft one like "umbrella"
