How can you challenge yourself daily and grow within your craft? It’s a question that plagues many of us especially when time, money and resources are limited. But in order to become an expert, Malcolm Gladwell suggests that we need 10,000 hours of deliberate principle? Chances are you have, even if you didn’t know that it came from him. The theory is that in order to become a master of a certain craft, you need to dedicate 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. How much time is 10,000 hours? It amounts to about 5 years if you spend 6 hours each and every day working towards your goal. In this instant gratification era that may seem like a hell of a lot of time, especially when you account for no weekend or holiday breaks. But that is what it takes. I (Phil Svitek) am not here today to argue against him because in the end it doesn’t really matter. What matters is that as an artist you continue to grow on a daily basis – that you’re better today than you were yesterday. And this applies to all levels – beginner to expert because even once you reach the level of expert, there’s always new ways to challenge yourself. In this lesson I provide you with a new perspective on how to stop seeing these notions as roadblocks and instead embrace them. I show you ways in which you can still practice your art every day in spite of any obstacles. Doing so will make you so much better and provide you with a unique voice! PS: I appreciate you tuning in and if you have any questions or thoughts, be sure to write them in the comment section.
