If it takes 10,000 hours of practice to become an expert, do you think anyone with this knowledge can make and carry about a plan to achieve this level of success? Why or why not?
I don't think that anyone who knows that it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert can make a plan to achieve this level of success because 10,000 hours of practice didn't necessarily make these people great. Sure it helped out a lot but there were other things that took place that made it possible for them to get these 10,000 hours of practice. I believe that some kind of special opportunity has to go along with it. For example Bill Gates had the special opportunity of having access to a computer terminal at 13 years old. Most kids today are inseparable from their electronics. Most of us have probably gone above and beyond 10,000 hours of being on the internet and typing in our short lives but none of us are billionaires yet. This is because having access to a computer isn't as rare as it used to be. A lot of people have them and they actually aren't extremely expensive.
