- accelerated learning (our time is limited)
- right on time learning
- identifying your level can help you improve your skills (consciousness and competence)

Chap 3.
- Availability heuristic: go for most available one
- Anchor heuristic: compare one thing with another that is remembered the most (first, cheapest, most expensive etc)
- Representativenesses: the Linda problem!!

- One of best bits of advice is to set things up so that you're constantly seeing concrete signs of improvements, even it's not a major improvement
- Break your journey into manageable series of goals and focus on them one at a time - perhaps REWARD YOURSELF each time you reach a goal.

- Once you starts practicing and seeing progress, progress itself becomes your motivation. As you progress, you make a new identity for yourself.
- Believe in yourself!! Promise yourself you will practice until you pass your plateau. But if you really pass it, you are not likely to stop there.
- Deliberate practice is a lonely journey. Surround yourself with people with the same energy

4. Maintaining motivation
- If you really want to improve your skills, devote an hour or more with concentration. Practicing like this will never outrun fun, but it will become neutral.
- To maintain your motivation, you can either strengthen your reasons to keep going or weaken the reasons to quit. One of methods is "having scheduled sessions"
- Have a good sleep and be healthy!!!

4. Pass your plateaus
Push yourself outside of your comfort zone (a little harder than usual but a lot harder) and see what breaks down first.
Then focus on techniques at improving that weaknesses.

3. When you don't have a teacher
Finding a right teacher or mentor is not always available. But since we're all accessible to the Internet we can find excellent resources for pretty much everything.
Using that, we can reproduce what the expert performance can do, fail, figure out why we failed, try again, and repeat -over and over again.
In three Fs: Focus, Feedbacks, Fix
Then you get this one: Fuck yeah

2. Engagement
If you really want to improve your skills, you better commit 100% of your mentality.
Focus and concentration are crucial, so training sessions with clearer are the best way to develop new skills.
During your session, you can end the session when it no longer feels effectively.

Short but more concentrated sessions are the key!!!

Deliberate practice in everyday life.
1. Find an experienced and accomplished teacher in that area. It is because you can get monitored in every detail from their perspective, so you can get valuable feedbacks. When you practice on your own, you have to rely on your own mental representation for monitoring your performance.
