"... If you practice with your head, two hours is plenty"
"... In highly competitive fields, deliberate practice is often necessary but not sufficient for success"
"...because we literally can't find a single one(trait) that isn't influenced by our genes"
"while genetics influence performance, they do not determine performance"
Quite a rollercoaster of emotions reading through the 'basics' of deliberate practice.
Defining a proper KPI for any skill that I wish to increase my expertise in and utilizing the data to provide myself with feasible, applicable feedback such that I can focus on what to practice next seems to be the gist of it. I can see how and why this could be applicable to coding, yet it seems like a thing that I'll always have to weigh out and compare the benefits for effective time management (Defining a KPI and giving myself feedback could be heavily time-consuming since I'll probably have to write tests specifically to calculate the defined KPI)
Oh and don't expect too much because genetics plays a surprisingly large role if you're aiming for the higher-ups. 😄
But a very interesting perspective that I hadn't thought about.
Once again, thank you for sharing Sung! 👍

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Seems like a very interesting read, will definitely read in the future.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Joon.
I am glad to have introduced the principle to you :)
