The First 20 Hours









I am stuck in traffic for a large part of every day. If it is not on my way to work, then it is on my way back from work. Or on my way to a meeting. Or on my way back from a meeting… you get the idea.

I have therefore invested in Audible. What is it. Audio Books. On your iPhone (and I would imagine Android device as well). My “reading” of books has therefore increased from near zero to about 4 books a month. Which is great.

Latest one I “read” is ‘The First 20 Hours’ by Josh Kaufman. Interesting read about Rapid Skill Acquisition (RSA). Josh sets himself a couple of tasks ranging from learning to code in Ruby and learning to play the Ukelele to Windsurfing and Yoga. All to be mastered to a certain level with 20 hours of practice. And he does it. And I’m impressed.

Definitely a book I would recommend. You can find it here.
