First, find the area you are passionate about and start working when you are sure. That’s why you can only give your years if you have a job you love. It is not possible to spend 10000 hours of experience on any job you can think of. If you really want and don’t give up, you can come to the level of earning money from your dream job. Do not fall into the trap of perfection and educate yourself enough to do your dream job in an average way.

You don’t need innate talent to get a job, you don’t need to be predisposed to your preferred job. Also, by working hard, you can surpass people who are more talented than you. We know that talent alone is not enough, but how long does it take to work? Common ideas and research show that an average of 10000 hours of experience is required to specialize in a job. You cannot become a successful athlete simply by relying on your innate talent, and less talented people can surpass you with years of hard work. The reason many athletes, who were seen as very talented as children, are disappointed when they grow up is because they don’t train enough. You should have mastered every detail of the sport you are doing and you should have practiced enough to make decisions without thinking.

Success is achieved by developing many of your good qualities together and working on them for years. Here are the 20 lessons to learn from Outliers Summary:
