10000 hours are not sufficient
- Repeated attempts with feedback
- Reduce feedback loop. 3 minutes to check are better than 1 hour to check better than year to check
- Chess can be mastered, instruments can be mastered, engineering and other technical tasks can be mastered
- Complex adaptive systems have no predicting power. You can learn to stay afloat. These systems require a lot of small repeated experiments too.
- The more efficient your feedback loop cycle, the better you go.
- Valid environment
- Gambling is random (for humans), you won't become an expert in that anytime soon.
- Timely feedback
- Immediate feedback are what we look for
- We take up noise as feedback where there's none
- We have problem with interpreting any delayed feedback
- Consequences a year down the line are basically impossible for us to comprehend.
- Don't get too comfortable - you lose alertness when too much of the
same work performed
- Practice at the edge of the ability
- Classical musicians know that
- It's called deliberate practice
- Coaches and teachers in chess see your weakness and assign tasks to address them.
The goal is to build memory from System 2 to System 1 to automatically respond in situations that can be automatically answered and preserve alertness otherwise.
In stagnation situation, introduce chaos to raise alterness levels.
