There are so many folks who say that athletes are madeup of a certain genetic predisposition, or that Mozart was a unique diamond in the rough. But is that true? According to Malcom Gladwell, mastery of anything, whether it's the Beatles in music, or Bill Gates in the computer world, takes 10,000 hours of practice. The only requirement for the individual is to find the money to create time for practice, have a strong desire to commit to the work, and practice, practice, practice until they achieve success.
