THE 10,000 HOUR RULE...THE TJ WAY

THE 10,000 HOUR RULE…THE TJ WAY

There is a guy I like.

He says and writes interesting things.

He says and writes fascinating things.

His name is Malcolm Gladwell.

I take lots of things from Malcolm.

A good insight.

I want to get better.

I want to improve my cycling.

I mean, who does not want to get better at something they love to do?

But I don’t need to become a pro.

It is not that I am ‘copping out,’ I just don’t have the time.

I want to be a ‘really good’ cyclist.

I am content with ‘really good.’

‘Really good’ is achievable.

Haha, ‘Really good’ I would say is more at the 8,000 hour mark.

I think I can fit that in.

And as I work towards that, every hour is one hour better.
