Josh Kaufman | 20 Hours to Learn Anything (Key Points Talk)

I just finished my 20th hour of Piano and to be honest I am impressed with how far I've come.

What skills are you guys wanting to learn?

ohh thanks dude , you handpicked all key pts i was bored seeing the original ones

to become a real public speaker. I hate the rule of grammar. So I decide to learn speak english with TED and learn how to become public speaker.

Learn to write in Japanese in 20 hours. I dare you.

I hate over toned talk....plz don't mind.

thanks

I want learn math.. 😁

A language in 20 hours ? What a joke

There is no Hack to learn Faster JUST START.. I started Learning guitar and I was impressed the first 8hours And Am still going.. 20hours and Boom.. You're in it

Thanks❣️ I am hoping to get up and running with basic bass guitar and with painting abstract art. I know my block is primarily emotional, secondarily interruptions from work life :-) but your 20 hours suggestion is a very doable great goal!

"The major barrier to skill acquisition isn't intellectual... It's emotional". That's it !

who else is here b'cuz of school?

"Feeling stupid at the start doesn't feel good" No it doesn't, buuuut, that's my favourite time. You're just beginning, nobody expects anything of you, the only pressure is what you put on yourself. I embrace it, lean into the wonderful noise I make as I start to learn something just above where I am. I can play the ukulele to a bit past beginner level, if I wanna try new chords or a fingerpick pattern it's part of the fun to see how I can fuck it up. Takes some of the stress out of sounding bad. The beginning is when there's the most to learn and it's most fun for me ^_^

Who's here from PDB

I want to learn French language

This 20 hours rule (like the 10,000 hours rule) is a vast oversimplification. You certainly can learn a lot in 20 hours but you will not reach a point where you have even moderate competence in more complex skills areas such as learning a language or cooking. I have been trying to learn French for over 3 years and am still far from proficient. Great points in the talk but his last statement is not realistic.

So is that 20 hours for each subskill or 20 hours for the overall goal?

😃🖖

Who all are here after watching the reels?
