I love the idea of becoming an expert at something in an unusually short period of time. I felt like this article was entertaining and enjoyable.

That being said, in regards to the 10,000 hours discussion being had here, I feel like the issue can be summed up as being a classic confusion of correlation and causation. It is obvious that a master will have practiced more than the apprentice but the practice itself is not the sole source of mastery.
