Malcom Gladwell popularized the idea that you need to apply 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to gain mastery of something... But this is false. The truth? This video reveals it all!!
In this video you will learn why this is wrong and what the real approach needs to be in order for you to create the success you desire.
In the video I mention a study I thought was from Harvard that proved scientifically that Malcom Gladwell's theory is wrong. I was incorrect, it is from Princeton, not Harvard!
Here is the study that debunks the 10,000 hour rule, to quote my source: www.youtube.com/redirect?redir_token=6EDZvevh_l0WjDZqfil_iN4Si658MTUyNjYxODEwOEAxNTI2NTMxNzA4&event=video_description&v=JPk0rR-7_V8&q=http%3A%2F%2Fjournals.sagepub.com%2Fdoi%2Fabs%2F10.1177%2F0956797614535810
Really, the key lies in experimentation, not just the amount of time invested.
If you are trying the same thing that doesn't work and you simply apply 'deliberate practice' to a flawed approach... You will simply waste a ton of your time.
The key is to experiment with different approaches, ideas, niches, strategies, etc... Continued experimentation is how you pivot and evolve your approach to where you ultimately find your unique process to creating value in the lives of others.
Maybe you experiment with drop-shipping first... Realize it is a race to the bottom and over-saturated with rubbish products... Then you adapt.
You experiment with several of my top 10 online business models as shown here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK33rLqKPZE
Then, you decided to build a list and start marketing information as an affiliate... This gets you to start content marketing where you experiment with writing blog posts on WordPress, creating YouTube videos and a podcast...
Turns out you love writing blog posts, so you keep at it... Then you start to experiment with your titles. Focusing on getting them more compelling and search engine friendly.
You experiment with your layout and adding keywords to make the posts more SEO optimized.
You experiment with adding pop ups over your blog posts like I show here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYJL2KY6uMQ
Now you have a list growing!
So you start experimenting with different opt in give-aways through split testing like I show here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJGMUz6RukE
From here you keep the content marketing machine going because it is giving you DATA that PROVES it is working... And you experiment with email marketing... You start experimenting with different email marketing approaches as explained here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxaX0bsbvho
And so on and so forth, the path to success appears!
Now, the best part is that I'm able to share with you my results from my 10,000+ experiments that I've run in finding my path to success with my online business.
But this doesn't mean you don't have to experiment, too... Because your path to success will be unique from mine.
You are a unique person... You have a unique upbringing, unique family, unique education and professional experiences, unique hobbies, etc.
Through experimentation you will find how all of those unique aspects of YOU can be combined and applied with the marketing and entrepreneurial tactics I teach here to ultimately offer value and service to an audience who you can help.
You will eventually find your unique path to success... As long as you keep experimenting and keep pushing forward!
