\u2022 To learn effectively, you need more than talent. You need a solid plan of attack, the right mindset, and plenty of contingency planning\u2014i.e., you need to learn how to learn.


\u2022 Not all practice is created equal. There are three types: naive, purposeful, and deliberate practice, the latter being most effective. This is where we act deliberately in a well-defined field with clear distinctions between experts and novices, with a skilled coach providing tailored practice strategies and feedback.


\u2022 The deliberate practice roadmap is a reiterative spiral: It begins with finding a teacher, then entails assessing your limits, setting SMART goals, focused practice, and feedback . . . and then it repeats.


\u2022 Slow practice is practicing a sequence at a slower tempo first and gradually increasing the speed to reach the desired performance level.
