There are so many follow up books about the subject, you could read one of them and learn more. Anders Ericsson, the source of the rule, has a popular science book called "Peak: Secrets from the New Science of Expertise" but also "Talent is Overrated" is a great book on the subject.
The problem though is all these books are about well understood domains with a pedagogical framework you can grind thru. There is nobody saying this works in a field like 'entrepreneurship'.
All the evidence is in things like chess or playing the violin where the path is well worn and a coach or mentor can keep you on the right path.
In those fields, yes, deliberate practise works.

- ibiza 4y agoThe programs described in "Peak" required a coach. Coaches play an integral role in the subject's road to mastery. Yet more evidence we cannot lift easy ideas like "mastery in just 10K hours" from psych research.
- adamgordonbell 4y agoMalcolm Gladwell never claimed you could mastery anything in 10k hours. That is just what people thought he said. But yes, the research is all around defined fields with expert coaches guiding the way.
