The article seems to be conflating "you need to practice 10,000 hours to be an expert" (which is debunked, per the study) with "you need to be an expert to enjoy something."
That's a little odd to me.
You shouldn't feel compelled to become an expert at something just because you enjoy doing it.

- misja111 3y agoFlipping it again, becoming an expert at something can be quite enjoyable.
- pushedx 3y agoThis article is new evidence that that's not true.

Ultimately, individuals who will reach expertise are those who lean towards a high(er) level of commitment. One can easily observe this in any organized activity. There will be a huge variance in expertise (= skills) among people who have a long experience.
