reading notes - TIO

comfort zone, learning zone, panic zone

1. It is actively designed specifically to improve performance, often with a teacher’s help.
2. Identify elements that need to be improved then work intently on them.
3. It can be repeated a lot
4. Feedback on results is continuously available
5. It’s highly demanding mentally
6. It isn’t much fun.
7. No automatic, performance must be conscious.

We insistently seek out what we’re not good at. Then we identify the painful, difficult activities that will make us better and do those things over and over.

Great performers never allow themselves to reach the automatic, arrested development stage in their chose field. … Ultimately the performance is always conscious and controlled, not automatic.
