This doesn't seem to match what the article says. It's not saying that the elite players feel relaxed, nor is it saying that they don't need to force themselves to study.
Rather, it's saying that they studied exactly as much as the lesser players, and that they did so with more discipline, both by spending more time on deliberate/hard practice, and by strictly scheduling their practice sessions.
- bigred100 7y agoI’m not sure thatvthe same principal doesn’t apply. For example, by the time I take advanced calculus in college, if I already know a huge chunk of the material and have strong mathematical maturity, I can spend more of my time on “the hard parts” without it stressing me as much as if they were harder for me.
- csallen 7y agoThat's true, but I'm not sure it's analogous. In sounds like in the study, by "hard parts" they meant the parts that were hard for the students. So it's relative. There were no universal "hard parts" that were actually easy for some.
