You do realize that spending one hour daily to get good at something would still require almost 30 years, right? I love the post though. Thanks.


I think the point is that you spend much more than one hour a day at it.


Agreed. I felt like doing some math. :) Anyway, one hour a day is what many of us have to pursue other personal goals different from work, family, etc.

Perhaps this lifestyle precludes being "fucking awesome"?


I'm certainly betting my wife finds me "fucking awesome" for bringing food back home, and no worries. :)

What would be your definition of being "fucking awesome"?


'I'm certainly betting my wife finds me "fucking awesome"'

In this case, the literal meaning of the phrase could be quite applicable, and well worth devoting 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to the cause.
