Many people see it as a rule that says, “Just spend a lot of time practicing.” 【小题1】 Many studies have shown that to improve our skills, we cannot just practice, but must use “deliberate(刻意的) practice”.

So what is deliberate practice? Imagine you want to become a professional violin player. You can already play some great pieces. Do you get better by only playing those same pieces over and over again? Or do you try to learn new songs? 【小题2】 “Deliberate practice” is different from “common practice”. It requires feedback(反馈) and constant(不断的) challenges to yourself.

【小题3】 Teachers can find mistakes and make corrections. But they cannot be there for us every step of the way. So we must be able to provide our own feedback and learn from our own mistakes. 【小题4】 If you are a runner who can run 100 meters in 12 seconds, you can try to achieve the same success in 11 seconds or even 10 seconds. Even if you are already the best in the world at something, your goals to challenge yourself and do better should never disappear.
