Discussing “deliberate practice.”
One of the topics that consistently yields the most hits on this blog is “deliberate practice,” a form of expertise-building studied by psychologist Anders Ericsson and laid out in books like Geoff Colvin’s Talent Is Overrated and Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers.
I’ve discussed deliberate practice here many times, and I’m always interested when new conversations arise in the comment threads of those posts. If you’d like to join one of these in progress, check out the lengthy exchanges between “tallison” and me in the comment thread of the post “Deliberate Practice in a Nutshell.”
How do YOU think we develop our abilities? And how much does talent (or “talent”?) matter?
Please chime in!
