The first 20 hours

        The first thing came up in my mind is the "10,000 hours rules", and I thought where I can get that much time in my whole life, 10,000 is a stressful number.

        Until I saw this TED Talk, 20 hours is more easy, this number is more acceptable. This 20 hours is not any 20 hours, it means you need to practice at least 20 hours ,then you are actually learn something, and I think the most important is you have to separate you goal into tiny steps,  like 45 minutes a day, and keep doing that for 1 month, and at the end of the month, you will get a new skill, compare with 10,000 hours rules, is much more easy to do, and to archive.
