I read a wonderful book, Mellcom Gladwell. In the book 'Outliers' (Little, Brown and Company, 2008), or in Bengali, stands out in the book 'Outside the Circle', the author has set the example of the world's toppers. Money-fame-talent-even though those who are successful, there is not even one who has a millionaire in luck! So what did they have that others did not?
Bill Gates talks about. When a student of class eleven starts his computer from the school's computer club. According to Gates, he did not spend even a week at least 30 hours in that computer room! That means at least 4 hours a day! At that time the computer would have been working, time-sharing-terminals could be rented for hours. In the meantime, Gates got an opportunity to work on free computer on an ISI (Information Science Incorporated) software. In that year, in 1971, he spent 1,575 hours in seven months behind computer programming. It means seven days a week - at least eight hours a day! When he left Harvard graduate midway, he already owns one of his software companies. What was his madness in leaving the study? Or was it seven years of hard work (10,000 or more hours of practice!) Found 'good luck'?
Another good thing in the world of technology - San MicroSystems' co-founder Bill Joy's' good fortune 'also comes in disguise of pursuit. Michigan University's Ann Arbor campus computer center spent eight to ten hours a day! In the victory, "I used to work waking up. I spent more time than a week in the classroom. I used to fall asleep on the keyboard ...." So how many hours have you spent leaving the university behind programming? 10,000 hours or more!
Again, music is a matter of merit, what happens if you do not have blood and tune the throat? Now, beetles talk. Before being fame, when Beatles were just a high-school band, they were called to Germany's Hamburg They had to sing in a club. How long? 8 hours a day! From 1960 to 1962, five times to Germany went to Germany. For the first time, they sang at 106 shows, 5/6 hours each. The second tour is to sing them 92 times. And in the third tour 48 times a total of 172 hours! Until 1964, for the first time being 'popular', about 1200 times their stage was performed! There are very few people who have the opportunity to perform stage-performance in the whole life maybe 1200 times.
Now the question is what the environment does not have any role? Of course there are. Bill Gates may not have been able to go to LakeSide School if he did not have a wealthy family. And in 1968, the school mothers did not have the opportunity to work on a computer purchased for $ 3000. But this opportunity was for all the students of that school; How did Bill Gates go far beyond contemporary sabha? If it is to say that if the bill is won, what can be denied its stereotype? The answer he gave in the examination table was the knowledge of his professors! He used to make a program that was used by some people in paperwork. But after all, why did he fall in front of the computer? Or if Beatles were popular only because of the 'genetic' melody, why singing night after night, why? Yes, everyone has the opportunity, but they have been able to put it into work, with the strength of tireless hard work. John Lennon of Beatles said, "When we were to sing for one hour in Liverpool, we would only sing our best songs again and again. But in an hour-long show in Hamburg, the music ran out. So, we had to make a lot of effort to find new tunes. After doing this, our blood-sweat-spirit mixed with music-made new tunes- new singers- "
Now the question is, why can not we succeed then? Basically, two reasons:
First of all, we think that 'birth fortune' is necessary to succeed. It sometimes means' I do not have the surroundings', sometimes' like my mother is not like me 'or' I have no talent. But as the author showed, the excitement of the environment is only Bakwaas. And, unlike, the 'natural talent' that is too much awaits the success is not the same. Instead, it was found that very common people were very successful; They do not make any gimmicks because they do not have extra confidence.
And secondly, we do not do the same thing in reality as to what big things we say. Yes, I work hard; But just as much 'self-interest' is achieved - I have 'done a lot of work' - that's not enough. I have seen it in my own eyes even though hard to believe - very true. As well as graduation to graduate from A 'A' to 'A-minus', I do not see it! To make excuses in your mind: If you come to home at 10 pm, you can study more than this! But it's not So enough just how much? A teacher was telling me about his life. BBA and computer science have read together, he spent three hours in 60 hours a week, spending three hours in the US! Yet GPA 4.0 has been kept. Sir said, "I have not been able to do many talented results even with the quality of general quality; Because I can not afford to be merciless, no one else can work harder than me - this was my persistence ".
Therefore, to work hard. According to Malcolm Gladwell, for 10,000 hours - forgetting to eat / eat, it looks like Swapnahatha, like a furious, success will be achieved only. That is the peak
