TIP #20

PRACTICE ALONE

Solo practice works because it’s the best way to 1) seek out the sweet spot at the edge of your ability, and 2) develop discipline, because it doesn’t depend on others.

The researchers found that the two groups were similar in every practice variable except one: The world-class performers spent five times as many hours practicing alone.
