The First 20 Hours - How to Learn Anything Fast (John Kaufman)
The First 20 Hours focuses on the idea that you can become relatively good at anything within 20 hours. That said, you have to use these 20 hours wisely. This is where the book is useful. The First 20 Hours highlights how you can make the most of your opening 20 hours of learning a skill.
In summary, to acquire a skill quickly:
1) Decide exactly what you want to be able to do, and to what level.
2) Deconstruct a skill into the smallest possible subskills.
3) Learn enough about each subskill to be able to practice intelligently and self-correct during practice.
4) Remove physical, mental, and emotional barriers that get in the way of practice.
5) Practice the most important subskills for at least 20 hours.
Let's run through some top tips to help you with your learning process:
Focus on one skill at a time.
Get the right tools for the job.
Remove distractions from your environment and address any fears.
Prioritize quantity and speed over quality in the first 20 hours.
Cut low-value activities from your day. Use the free time to practice your skill for at least 90 minutes. This can be broken into shorter bursts.
Track your progress and give yourself feedback, or else find a coach.
