"There's one figure that everyone takes away from Malcolm Gladwell's new book, Outliers: 10,000 hours. That, he says, is the difference between success and non-success, genius and mediocrity. Anyone from the Beatles to Bill Gates who has succeeded has done so on the back of at least 10,000 hours of practice. Plus, obviously, some intelligence and talent. This is an extension of his last book, Blink, in which he praised the power of intuitive snap judgments - but you need to have experience to make those judgments.
Like all the books in this peculiarly American genre, it expands a one- sentence conclusion into a book, and few of us are in a position to dispute the statistical basis. It will give heart to nature's plodders, to the tortoises over the hares. The relationship between success and IQ works, says Mr Gladwell, only up to the point of reasonable intelligence - any more is a waste.
Outliers, like most pop social science, has some obvious truth. In fact, the essence of the argument was made in 1859 by Samuel Smiles in his immortal book, Self-Help. "Strenuous individual application," he declared, with plentiful examples, "is the price paid for distinction; excellence of any sort is placed beyond the reach of indolence."
When enter this equation into the home business or MLM business arena, you begin to understand exactly why the failure rate is so high. READ MORE...
