Expanding on a landmark cover story in Fortune , a top journalist debunks the myths of exceptional performance .
One of the most popular Fortune articles in many years was a cover story called “What It Takes to Be Great.” Geoff Colvin offered new evidence that top performers in any field--from Tiger Woods and Winston Churchill to Warren Buffett and Jack Welch--are not determined by their inborn talents. Greatness doesn’t come from DNA but from practice and perseverance honed over decades.
And not just plain old hard work, like your grandmother might have advocated, but a very specific kind of work. The key is how you practice, how you analyze the results of your progress and learn from your mistakes, that enables you to achieve greatness.
Now Colvin has expanded his article with much more scientific background and real-world examples. He shows that the skills of business—negotiating deals, evaluating financial statements, and all the rest—obey the principles that lead to greatness, so that anyone can get better at them with the right kind of effort. Even the hardest decisions and interactions can be systematically improved.
This new mind-set, combined with Colvin’s practical advice, will change the way you think about your job and career—and will inspire you to achieve more in all you do.

讀後感
一 如果你很忙，那你一定是错的。 通常我们都会认为那些在某一领域所花费时间更多的人更容易走向卓越，但是通过对一所大学小提琴手的调查研究发现，事实刚好相反：普通小提琴手比那些精通的小提琴手花的时间更多，而那些精通的小提琴手则将更多的时间用来休息与放松。 ...
評分1万小时的原理许多人都听过了，如果你对通过练习实现卓越感兴趣，这本书就是你想要的。 1. 天才，它不是一种经验，在许多领域有成就的人，数年之后反倒更糟。它也不是特别的天生能力。天才源于练习，比如投球手赖斯，他花很少时间去比赛，但是却针对自己的特殊需要设计练习。 ...
評分跟这本类似还有一本叫The talent code，我看书的时候一直觉得就是一个自然延伸的，结果居然不是同一个人写的，年代也非常接近，用的terms也是一样的。感觉这里有必要先从Talent code说起。 那本的笔记在这里：(sigh，不仔细做笔记就是错误的，现在来回忆内容就发现已经忘记不...
評分本文链接：http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_70e53c830100ogor.html 在《异类—不一样的成功启示》一书中提到了10000小时的概念，在《哪来的天才》的一书更详细的描述了10000个小时是怎么利用的？提出了刻意训练的概念，在一定程度上指出了普通人达到卓越状态可以采用的一些...
評分读了5页英文，觉得不值得仔细看；继续读半本的中文，觉得没有必要一页一页看了（可以试试“十倍速影像阅读法”）；然后我就去看看作者到底是个什么人。 找到答案了。 Geoffrey Colvin is the author of Talent is Overrated: What Really Separates World-Class Performers f...

most painful book I've ever read... seems boring at first, but deliberate practice sounds soooo damn powerful...
评分Delibrate practice for years leads to great performance.Delibrate practice means a carefully designed plan, constant constructive feedback and strong motivation to overcome setbacks. However, world-class performance often comes at the sacrifice of personal relationships and other enjoyment.
评分deliberate practice對我這種渙散氣短浮躁懶的人來說簡直就是鏡花水月。。。
评分很多實用的建議
评分前麵章節很不錯，從公司應用那章開始有一些章節比較水
