"Expert Enough and The Lost Art of Becoming Good at Things"

Nice sentence!!

We are all capable of so much more than we think. And yet, most people never scratch the surface of what they are actual capable of.

Since 2011, we’ve been asking questions about what it mean to become an expert another is what it takes, and whether being an “expert” is really all that important in life?

Expert Enough is about getting good at things which you love to do. It’s about wanting to learn more, do more and be more. It is all about unlocking the potential inside a person, and gaining the enormous benefits waiting for those who actually follow through it technically.

But becoming good at such things is becoming a lost art.

Amongst most of us could use more doing and less consuming. To acquire new skills, live an interesting life and do adventurous things, you have to be good at putting in the effort it takes to actually do those things personally.

For most people, success and happiness does not require to become the world’s greatest expert. It’s more effective to become just expert enough to accomplish your goals in life.
It requires surprisingly little effort in most fields to gain more expertise than 95% of people eventually.
Despite the fact gains can be made quickly, most people never attempt to gain new skills, and even fewer follow through it.
The way in which you practice is much more important than how much you practice. Without something known as deliberate practice you’re likely to upland quickly, get frustrated, and give up.
Expertise isn’t an absolute. Think of it as a scale, from 1 to 10. If you’re a 3, there are plenty of 1s and 2s out there who you can teach, and probably better than people with more expertise.
Earning a living from who you are and what you know has little to do with your specific level of expertise. It’s more about your resourcefulness and finding a unique corner of the market.

This all started with a conversation I had with myself about the life I was living vs. the life I wanted to live.

I took a step back and thought about how I wanted to spend my time, what I wanted to learn and do, and how I could look back on my life and say, “god damn, I lived the hell out of those years.”

Have you had that conversation with yourself yet? If so, what are you doing to make it happen? If not, what are you waiting for?

Now I’d love to hear what you think.
